Description
The allure of Egypt is not exclusive to the modern world.
Egypt also held a fascination and attraction for people of the past.
In this book, academics from a wide range of disciplines assess the significance of Egypt within the settings of its past.
The chronological span is from later prehistory, through to the earliest literate eras of interaction with Mesopotamia and the Levant, the Aegean, Greece and Rome.
Ancient Perspectives on Egypt includes both archaeological and documented evidence, which ranges from the earliest writing attested in Egypt and Mesopotamia in the late fourth millennium BC, to graffiti from Abydos that demonstrate pilgrimages from all over the Mediterranean world, to the views of Roman poets on the nature of Egypt.
This book presents, for the first time in a single volume, a multi-faceted but coherent collection of images of Egypt from, and of, the past.
