Join a discussion on how objects excavated in Egypt during the 19th and 20th Centuries were distributed from excavations to museums and collections around the world, featuring special guest Anna Garnett and host Charlotte Jordan at the Egypt Exploration Society. We also explore the importance of archival documentation for tracing the history of object distribution and the research opportunities available in institutions like the EES.
