Henry Salt
Appointed Britain's consul-general in Egypt in 1815, Henry Salt (1780–1827) involved himself deeply in the excavation of several historic sites and the collection of numerous antiquities. This 1825 publication, featuring Salt's careful reproductions and explanations of inscriptions, made a valuable contribution to the understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphics.
