In 2019 Charles University, its Faculty of Arts, and the Czech Institute
of Egyptology are celebrating the hundredth birthday of Czech
Egyptology. It is an important centenary not only for us, but for
archaeology globally. For many years now Czech Egyptologists have been
among world leaders in the field, making major breakthroughs (most
recently the discovery of the tomb of the priest Kaires) - and helping
to set new international research trends.
This book presents the most important discoveries of Czech Egyptologists
and the range and variety of their activities.
