Abstract

Ancient Egyptian Footwear is not only a protective foot covering but also has a considerable symbolic content. Manufacturing technology of the ancient Egyptian footwear was systematically studied by the Ancient Egyptian Footwear Project (AEFP). The collection is exhibited but is not presented as it should be. Furthermore, visitors of the museum have no opportunity to observe this collection since the building is closed[1]. The ancient Egyptian Footwear collection (Table) housed in one of the new agriculture museums buildings in Giza that comes mainly from Deir el Madina includes 17 sandals and 2 open shoes.  Comparing the collection with other Ancient Egyptian Footwear showed that the collection should fall in the New Kingdom.
