“A high school in regional Australia holds ancient human remains, which are a long way from home.”

“Dialogue, prompted by situations like the mummified human remains inside Grafton High School, can help reclaim this history. We need to go through this whole healing process. [These human remains] might never find their way back home but they can still find peace.”

This bronze statuette by Donatello (c. 1435-40) combines the attributes of several ancient male gods including the trousers of Attis, the wings of a cupid, the tail of a faun, the winged feet of Mercury and a snake associated with Hercules. However, for me, his youthful joie de vivre and exuberance recalls Harpocrates, the son of Isis and Osiris. Seen at the Donatello Exhibition at V&A

So it turns out:
Gardiner and Peet, "The Inscriptions of Sinai" part 1, 1917

is different from:
Gardiner, Peet, and Černý, "The Inscriptions of Sinai" part 1, 1952

...in that the former was constrained by contract to include only material from Egyptian Exploration Society projects.

Part 2, consisting of description and translations, was never published by the original authors, so when Černý took over the work a generation later, he republished part 1 with half again as many inscriptions from other sources, before completing and publishing part 2 in 1955.

It may be the new part 1 wasn't recognized as a significant update, or #egyptomania wasn't what it once was, but a lot of libraries seem to have only the 1917 edition, making looking up some of the inscriptions from part 2 very confusing!

Publishers often bump dates just to extend copyright, even for a simple re-print. But sometimes the edition date ends up being important!

Doing a little Egyptomania research this morning and stumbled across an image from 1936, depicting the burnt out remains of Crystal Palace, in south London. At least the Sphinx remained unscathed.
