Scope and content

A complete set of De Keersmaecker's publications on early travellers' graffiti from Egypt and the Sudan, presenting graffiti left by (mostly) European visitors at sites during the nineteenth century (print volumes and Word files).

  • Volumes I-XII
  • Index to volumes I-XII
  • Additional volumes [I], II, III.[I]-II-[III].

Most publications represent a single site or part of a site, and within each publication, the graffiti are organised in groups:

  • Graffiti with names with a date also recorded, arranged chronologically, supplemented by biographical information
  • Graffiti with names without accompanying dates, arranged alphabetically, supplemented by biographical information
  • 'Unclassifiable' graffiti, partial names or initials
  • Index of names
  • Photographs of a selection of graffiti
  • Short essays on individuals
  • Bibliography.

The Word files, from which the PDFs uploaded here have been created, seem to be the original version of the publications. They present some dissimilarities with the final print volumes. The set of print volumes contain some annotations and related loose documents, both added later by De Keersmaecker.
