After Enter the Pyramid, Contemporary Archaeology is the second part of Olivier Cablat's project on contemporary Egypt. The photographer continues his analysis of Egyptian society and its relationship to time and history through the phenomenon of repetition and reappropriation of symbols (from the ancient Pharaonic civilization) in everyday life. Thus the leporello proposes on its front side, a taxonomy of current objects illustrating this phenomenon. When on the front stretches a long photographic frieze, The allegory of the barracks, fictional representation of the transfer of the mummy of Ramses I from the temple of Karnak to the museum of Luxor, in 2004.

This is a copy published by Galerie 2600 in Arles 2 years before its publication by RVB Books in 2014.
