EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Turin Papyrus Map, an invaluable artifact from ancient Egyptian civilization. Dating back to Dynasty XIX of the New Kingdom, this meticulously crafted map depicts the course of Wadi Hammamat between the Nile Valley and the Red Sea. The intricate details etched onto papyrus reveal a deep understanding of cartography in ancient times. In this studio shot, we are presented with a vertical view of the map that highlights its rich historical significance. The vibrant red sea depicted on the map serves as a focal point, drawing our attention to the vital trade route it represents. Thorn symbols intricately placed along Wadi Hammamat offer guidance through this challenging terrain. The absence of people in this image allows us to fully appreciate and immerse ourselves in ancient Egyptian culture. As an archaeological artifact, it provides valuable insights into their advanced knowledge and skills in navigation and exploration. The Turin Papyrus Map is not just a mere representation but rather a testament to human curiosity and ingenuity throughout history. Its preservation over centuries has allowed us to glimpse into Africa's past civilizations and marvel at their achievements
