THE GAYER ANDERSON CAT - The Gayer-Anderson Cat has been one of the most admired objects at the
British Museum since its arrival in 1947. This book presents a detailed
description of the cat and a discussion of its possible meaning and role
in ancient times. Surprising new finds from scientific analyses are
presented for the first time, shedding light on the cat’s modern
history, from its acquisition by the British Army major and avid
antiquities collector John Gayer-Anderson to its donation to the British
Museum. The fascinating narrative is complemented by outstanding new
photography.
