"Written in an engaging, thoughtful, and provocative style, "Conflicted Antiquities" provides a unique perspective on the 'consumption' of ancient Egypt. What makes it distinctive is Elliott Colla's focus on Egyptian readings of the ancient past, an area which has been greatly neglected. Colla has much that is fresh and new to contribute, especially since the resources on which he draws are not widely known nor easy to get hold of."-- Stephanie Moser, author of "Wondrous Curiosities: Ancient Egypt at the British Museum"
