«Je suis né en Égypte il y a 4700 ans» is the autobiography of Egyptologist Jean-Philippe Lauer, published by Albin Michel in paperback (267 pages, in French).
The French Egyptologist recalls his arrival in Egypt in 1926 and the seventy-four years of life he devoted to the country's archaeology, following in the footsteps of the architect Imhotep and Pharaoh Djoser. A personal evocation of Egyptian antiquities, the desert and a vocation born of wonder.
The text was written with the collaboration of Claudine Le Tourneur d'Ison; the Albin Michel edition appeared in Paris in 2000 and includes 16 plates outside the text.
For readers of biographies and memoirs of archaeologists, as well as for enthusiasts of the history and culture of Ancient Egypt.
