Egyptology studies originally focused on the Brazilian imperial family, and demonstrated the interest in Egyptian artifacts during times when artifact collecting activities were common and the 19th-century sciences were born. As a result, the first objects from Ancient Egypt arrived in Rio de Janeiro and were sent to the National Museum of Quinta da Boa Vista. Another center of study started at the University of São Paulo, as it is located in the city that was the Brazilian economic center, with the biggest investment in scientific research. We suggest that a genealogy of Brazilian Egyptology can be traced, departing from two pillars: Rio de Janeiro, with the National Museum, the Federal Fluminense University, and the University of São Paulo. From these researchers training centers, Egyptology spread to other regions in the country. Nuestro objetivo en este artículo es explicar el surgimiento de la Egiptología en Brasil, sus caminos de investigación, desdoblamientos e investigaciones futuras. Los estudios realizados en el campo de la Egiptología tuvieron como foco original a la familia imperial brasileña, lo cual demostró interés por los artefactos egipcios en la época en que era común la práctica del coleccionismo y nacían las ciencias del siglo XIX. Como resultado de dicho interés, los primeros objetos del Antiguo Egipto llegaron a Río de Janeiro y fueron depositados en el Museo Nacional de la Quinta da Boa Vista. Otro foco de estudio se originó en la Universidad de São Paulo, por estar situada en la ciudad que constituye el polo económico de Brasil y en la cual se realiza la mayor inversión en el área de la investigación científica. En nuestra opinión, es posible trazar una genealogía de la Egiptología brasileña a partir de dos ejes: Río de Janeiro, con el Museo Nacional y la Universidad Federal Fluminense y la Universidad de São Paulo. Fue a partir de estos centros formadores de investigadores que el área de la Egiptología se expandió hacia otras regiones del país. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/8458 10.34096/arqueologia.t26.n3.8458 spa Instituto de Arqueología, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/Arqueologia/article/view/8458/7604 Derechos de autor 2020 Arqueología Arqueología; Vol. 26 No. 3 (2020): September-December; 111-126 Arqueología; Vol. 26 Núm. 3 (2020): septiembre-diciembre; 111-126 1853-8126 0327-5159 Egyptology History Archeology Collecting National Museum University Egiptología Historia Arqueología Coleccionismo Museo Nacional Universidad The research on Ancient Egypt in Brazil: balance, challenges, and perspectives La investigación sobre el Antiguo Egipto en Brasil: balance, retos y perspectivas info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=arqueo&d=8458_oai
