This volume is the outcome of a workshop held at the Museo Egizio from the 8th to the 10th October 2018. The international workshop “Deir el-Medina Through the Kaleidoscope” highlighted ongoing research focusing on the history of the archaeological excavations and recent field activities as well the study of written and non-written material culture. Museum collections, archives, material culture, philological and archaeological data are put in multidisciplinary dialogue with one another in an attempt to reconstruct the socio-economic history of Deir el-Medina.
