Description
|
|
|
|
In this handsomely produced, strikingly illustrated slipcased catalog, Egyptologist Zahi Hawass guides readers through the architectural landscape of ancient Egypt, from the houses and palaces of the living to the temples of the gods to the tombs of the dead. Among the hundreds of captioned photographs are 38-inch double gatefold images of the tomb of Menna at Thebes and the burial chamber of Amenhotep II, as well many filling a full 10 x 14-inch page or two pages. The book tours of the most important sites of ancient Egypt, from the Pyramids at Giza to Abu Simbel and the Valley of the Kings, revealing fresh insight into how the ancient Egyptians lived, how they prepared for death, and how they perceived their own place within the universe.
