Johannes Dümichen

Johannes Dümichen (15 October 1833, Weißholz bei Großglogau – 7 February 1894, Strasbourg) was a German Egyptologist.

Subsequently, he became a pupil of Karl Lepsius and Heinrich Brugsch, and devoted himself to the study of Egyptian inscriptions.

On the first expedition (1862–65), along with investigations of the Nile Valley in Egypt, he also conducted extensive research in Nubia and the Sudan.

On his fourth trip to Egypt (1875), he studied the inscriptions of the largest private tomb in the Theban Necropolis.

[5] The value of his work consists not only in the stores of material which he collected, but also in the success with which he dealt with many of the problems raised by the inscriptions.
