Author’s NoteAuguste Mariette was the first person to organise and supervise Egyptian archaeology. He was appointed Director of the Science of Antiquity, a position that was held by Frenchmen until 1952.
Mariette’s accomplishments represented a milestone in Egyptian archaeology. He exhumed fifteen thousand mummies from Abydos, the site of the Royal Cemetery. He discovered the Second Pyramid and the Tomb of Ti, which is a showplace for tourists today.
He himself regarded his founding of the Bulak Museum in Cairo as his most important work.
