Valuing Egyptian Nubia

View through CrossRef
This chapter considers the constitution of Egyptian Nubian pasts through fieldwork that generated links between documentation and instruments. Tensions surrounding knowledge created during the Nubian campaign were occasionally bureaucratized into irrelevance. The chapter details the Chicago House Method enforced by UNESCO, which involves photography and line drawing. Despite CEDAE's best efforts, precision recording of Nubian remains continued to be adjudicated by reference to the cast of people involved at particular sites rather than with respect to any standardized system. The chapter mentions how the assumption of values lies in the Egyptian government itself. It cites the development of infrastructure for national and international tourists who might be exposed to riverside pleasures anew.
