Following Napoleon's Egyptian campaign and dissemination of images and descriptions via publications like Description de l'Égypte (1809) an intense cultural fascination with all things Egyptian followed. Suites of contemporary parlor furniture were produced resembling furniture found in tombs. Multicolored woodblock printed wallpaper could make a dining room in Edinburgh or Chicago feel like Luxor. While there was no relationship between Egyptian writing systems and slab serif types, either shrewd marketing or honest confusion led to slab serifs often being called "Egyptians". Historian James Mosley has shown that the first typefaces and letters called 'Egyptian' were apparently all sans-serifs. However, Egyptian came to refer to slab serifs by the mid and late nineteenth century. Some twentieth-century slab serifs (ones designed after the modern system of names for fonts had taken hold), have 'Egyptian' names as a reminder of this: Cairo, Karnak, and Memphis are examples of this.
