About the author

Sir E. A. Wallis (Ernest Alfred Wallis) Budge

1857–1934

Best known for bringing ancient Egypt and the wider ancient Near East to a broad reading public, this pioneering scholar spent decades at the British Museum and wrote widely on Egyptian religion, magic, and literature. His books helped shape popular interest in mummies, the Book of the Dead, and the world of the pharaohs.
