| Alternative title: | [Aygyptos. A database of research literature in the field of Egyptology] |
| Description: | 'Aigyptos' is a database project which aims to provide rapid access to research bibliographies in Egyptology from the prehistoric to the Graeco-Roman periods and includes materials relevant to Coptic and Nubian studies. The searchable database is in German but the comprehensive introduction with detailed search instructions is also available in English. The project is a collaborative venture between the Instituts für Ägyptologie der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München and the Ägyptologischen Institut der Universität Heidelberg. The compilation of the databases is an on-going project. Comprehensive bibliographies are available from 1990 with more selective coverage before this date at the time of writing. The search engine is based on a wide-ranging keyword system drawing heavily on the "Lexicon der Ägyptologie" and is accompanied by detailed advice on how to use the databases. This is a specialist resource aimed at advanced students and researchers in Egyptology and related fields. |
