The Disintegration of Building Stones in Egypt is a book written by Alfred Lucas in 1902. The book provides a comprehensive study of the various building stones used in ancient Egyptian architecture, and the factors that contributed to their disintegration over time. Lucas examines the physical and chemical properties of the stones, as well as the environmental conditions that affected their stability. He also discusses the methods used by ancient Egyptians to quarry and shape the stones, and how these techniques may have contributed to their eventual decay. The book includes detailed illustrations and photographs of the various types of building stones, as well as examples of their deterioration. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of ancient Egyptian architecture and the science of building materials.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
