Ian Shaw,
Life
His field work was largely focused in
el-Amarna, but in recent times, he has done extensive excavations of mining and quarrying sites from various Ancient Egyptian
periods. He primarily focuses his recent work on methods and mechanics of Egyptian craftsmen and laborers. However, he has produced several works regarding ancient Egyptian warfare; a topic that had long been ignored or only briefly commented on by other researchers.
Besides writing original books, he also has edited several "dictionaries" of Ancient Egypt (which might more correctly be labeled "encyclopedias"; they are in no way lexicons).
On 15 March 2018, Shaw was elected a
Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries (FSA).[2]
