Education & Reference History Language & Linguistics
An Egyptian Hieroglyphic Dictionary by E.A. Wallis Budge remains the classic, two-volume desk reference for students, writers, and armchair Egyptologists decoding ancient Egyptian language. This 1978 Dover paperback reprint keeps all the original illustrations intact, so every glyph, determinative, and variant spelling is clearly charted.
The pages are crisp and unmarked, free of notes, dog-ears, or underlining, and the binding stays tight for daily consultation. Only light foxing dots the top edge when the book is closed; otherwise the book is bright and inviting.
Because it is a Dover edition, the price stays friendly while the scholarship stays authoritative, making it a practical entry point for hobbyists or a sturdy working copy for classroom or home study. A clean, smoke-free copy ready to travel from shelf to Nile-side project without worry.
