Ian Shaw

    Dr. Ian Shaw se zaměřuje na metody a mechaniky staroegyptských řemeslníků a dělníků. Jeho výzkum se rozšířil od terénních prací v el-Amarně k rozsáhlým vykopávkám těžebních a kamenolomných lokalit napříč různými obdobími starověkého Egypta. Kromě práce s řemeslníky se věnujte i staroegyptskému válečnictví, tématu, kterému se jiní badatelé často věnovali jen okrajově. Kromě autorských knih se podílel na editaci několika encyklopedií o starověkém Egyptě.
