Epigraph

Dedication

THIS BOOK

IS

DEDICATED TO

THE MEMORY OF

SAMUEL BIRCH

AUTHOR OF THE

FIRST EGYPTIAN DICTIONARY

ARRANGED ALPHABETICALLY.

First words

It may be taken for granted that, from the time when Åkerblad, Young and Champollion le Jeune laid the foundation of the science of Egyptology in the first quarter of the nineteenth century down to the present day, every serious student of Egyptian texts, whether hieroglyphic, hieratic or demotic, has found it necessary to compile in one form or another his own Egyptian Dictionary. (Introduction)

Last words

Disambiguation notice

This Dover edition, first published in 1978, is a republication of the work originally published in two volumes by John Murray of London, in 1920. The present edition differs in the following ways: the volumes are divided differently; the originally appended List of Egyptian Hieroglyphic Characters in the Fount of Messrs. Harrison and Sons (a printer's catalogue) is here omitted; the dedication page is reproduced in black and white rather than in color; and a specially prepared text, "On the Arrangment of Words in This Dictionary," has been added." T.p. verso, Dover ed.
