The history of Ancient Egypt has been studied in the region of Southeast Europe since the end of the 19th century. In some of the countries this was not the case for various reasons, but mainly ...because of the undeveloped scholarly capabilities and institutions, insufficient funds for archaeological research in Egypt, and the lack of cooperation with scholars from other countries. From the 1960s, however, this situation has changed for the better. This book comprises a selection of papers in which scholars from various institutions of the region reviewed the different aspects of past studies and the development of the research of the Ancient Egypt in some countries, along with recent research in the field.

However, when we scratch beneath the surface of the common idea of Egypt, that of ...a distant and ancient civilisation, we notice that its elements have been present in Croatia ever since antiquity.Egypt in Croatia provides a closer look at many aspects of the presence and fascination of ancient Egyptian culture in Croatia, from antiquity to the present. The topics explored are the artefacts discovered in present-day Croatia (mostly from the early 19th century), Croatian travellers to Egypt from the 16th to the middle of the 20th century, Egyptian collections in Croatia and early collectors from the 1820s until the 1950s, an overview of the development of Egyptology of study within Croatia as well as the various elements of 'Egyptomania' found in Croatia, mostly from the beginning of the 19th century.
The 12th Egypt and Austria conference (Zagreb, September 2018) saw 39 presentations on current research related to the interactions between Egypt and the states of the former Habsburg Monarchy and ...the Ottoman Empire up to the middle of the 20th century. 26 papers are presented in this proceedings volume.

Tisućama godina staroegipatski vjerski svijet bio je sastavljen od brojnih tradicionalnih bogova s izostankom stvarne nadređenosti jednog božanstva. Kada je Amenhotep IV. Ekhnaton (o. 1352 – 1336. g. ...pr. Kr.) postavio sunčev disk Atona iznad svih ostalih bogova započeo je dobro poznatu i jedinstvenu religijsku promjenu na prostoru starog Egipta. Tijekom njegove vladavine prethodno poznat kult sunčeva diska postao je „jedini“ bog Egipta, što je bio jedini takav slučaj u dugotrajnoj staroegipatskoj vjerskoj tradiciji. Autor u članku prikazuje razvoj Atonova kulta, njegove glavne vjerske doktrine i novi koncept vjere koji se pojavio tijekom perioda Amarne.
