Note générale:This research was made possible thanks to the generous support of the FWO and FNRS-funded EOS (Excellence of Science)-project No. 30885993 ‘Pyramids and Progress. Belgian expansionism and the making of Egyptology, 1830-1952’.The “Commission de classement des crédits internationaux (CCCI)” of the Université libre de Bruxelles awarded me an additional grant allowing a research stay in Egypt in the summer of 2022 during which I was able to do research in the Dar al-Wathaiq al-Qawmiyah in Cairo as well as numerous libraries of foreign research institutes in Egypt.The Fondation Jaumotte-Demoulin, Fondation Héger-Masson, and the Fonds David et Alice Van Buuren awarded me in June 2022 the Prix Van Buuren thanks to which I was able to continue my research after my term at ‘Pyramids and Progress’ had ended in November 2022.
