A fascinating exploration of Chinese reception of Egyptian antiquity by our visiting fellow Tian Tian!
Duanfang 端方 (1861-1911) was one of China's 'constitutional commissioners' in 1905-06. He used his world tour to not only study constitutions, but also to purchase elephants 🐘(backbone of Peking Zoo, first in Asia) - and Egyptiaca. Fascinating article by Tian Tian:
