Administrative history

In the period between 1902 and 1909, private collections were acquired in Egypt. In 1945, the Egyptian Department was established. The Near Eastern Department was established in 1947, and between 1949 and 1959 there was an extensive acquisition of Egyptian sculpture by purchase. In 1966 the Egyptian and West Asian Departments became separate departments.
