This volume forms the proceedings of the conference, Egypt in its African Context, which took place at The Manchester Museum, University of Manchester, UK, on the 3-4 October 2009. The conference at Manchester had a number of aims: to address perceptions of Ancient Egypt in the West, in scholarly writing and public understanding, to present a scholarly approach to the subject of Egypt in Africa in order to counterbalance the extreme Afrocentric views within which such a debate is often contextualised, to investigate how community groups and professional Egyptologists can transfer their knowledge and points of view, and to present the work of scholars working on African-centred Egyptology to a wider audience - including the traditional academic Egyptological community.
