Exploring Ancient Egypt

The "Remains to be Seen" series looks at the past through the archaeological evidence that remains today.

This volume looks at who the Egyptians were, their everyday life, what gods and godesses they believed in and their religion.

Also discussed is the history of Egypt during the reigns of the two Pharoahs - Akhenaten and Tutankhamun, the history behind their writing and art (hieroglyphs, papyrus, painting and sculpture), and finally the history of Egypt under the Greeks and Romans.

There are fact boxes which highlight key facts and the text is supported by an array of photographs and maps.

The book also features a time-line, a glossary and a full index.
