In 1898 the British Egyptologists James Quibell and Frederick Green uncovered a slab of greenishgrey slate-like stone in the ruins of an early temple at the Upper Egyptian site of Hierakonpolis. This was not a find, which, like Tutankhamun's tomb 24 years later, would bring the world's journalists racing to the scene, but its discoverers were almost immediately aware of its importance. Like the Rosetta stone, this carved slab – the Narmer Palette – would have powerful repercussions for the study of ancient Egypt, spreading far beyond its immediate significance at Hierakonpolis.

to solve numerous different problems.
(b) No single object can necessarily typify an entire culture.
(c) The surviving artefacts from the Nile Valley are so iconic and so rich in information that they can

by two bearded men.
