The original title of the exhibition and the accompanying book was Agatha Christie und der Orient : Kriminalistik und Archäologie, a more accurate description than that of the English version. After London, it will go on to Copenhagen. The three books under review were published directly or indirectly in association with this exhibition.Ĭonceived by Charlotte Trumpler, exhibition curator at the Ruhrlandmuseum in Essen, Germany, the exhibition opened in Essen in October 1999 and has been shown in Vienna, Basel and Berlin. Her role in Near Eastern archaeology and archaeology's role in her life and writings are commemorated in an exhibition, "Agatha Christie and Archaeology: Mystery in Mesopotamia", at the British Museum until March 24. On September 11 1930, four days before her 40th birthday, Agatha Christie married her second husband, a 26-year-old Near Eastern archaeologist called Max Mallowan, and for the remaining 45 years of her life she was closely involved with his archaeological activities.
