This three-volume report contains the results of two Joint
Arabic-Polish Anthropological Expeditions conducted between 1958 and
1962. The "Tables of Measurements" describe, in great detail, the
physical characteristics and bodily dimensions (in millimeters) of
several thousand Egyptian villagers; while the sepia photogravure
"Illustrations" portray a large sampling of Egyptians in mug-shot
format.
The volumes were published in Warsaw in 1964 and 1965 by the Polish
Academy of Sciences and the Egyptian Research Centre. They comprise
more than a thousand pages in total. The inside front covers of all
three books are stamped "Ex Libris - Henry Field - Cancelled - Field
Museum Library."
