Book
Egyptology
Egyptology introduces both ancient Egyptian civilisation and the modern effort to recover and interpret its remains. It discusses monuments, tombs, mummies, hieroglyphs and artefacts, explaining how archaeology and the decipherment of Egyptian writing changed knowledge of the pharaohs. The book also follows major discoveries and the development of the discipline, showing how evidence from temples, burials and everyday objects is used to reconstruct life along the ancient Nile.
