Ägyptisches Wörterbuch 1: Altes Reich und Erste Zwischenzeit (Egyptian Dictionary I: Old Kingdom and First Intermediate Period) (Hannig-Lexica 4)

This monumental dictionary presents over 100,000 fully referenced entries, arranged topographically, which have been gathered from Old Kingdom and First Intermediate Period texts. The aim is to publish `all important references'. The dictionary translates the entries into German but the references `are more or less independent of language' and, as such, this dictionary will undoubtedly prove invaluable to Egyptologists. In order to avoid the restrictions imposed by modern languages and to stress the prominence of ancient Egyptian, the introductory sections are also published in English, French, Italian and Spanish.
