This volume provides a long term and interdisciplinary perspective on Egypt and its mnemohistory, taking theories on objects and their agency as its point of departure. The central questions the book addresses are why, from the first millennium BC onwards, things and concepts Egyptian are to be found in such a great variety of places throughout European history and how we can account for their enduring impact over time.
