THE EGYPTIANS
Of all ancient societies, Egypt perhaps has the widest popular appeal.
The huge amounts of archaeological material, from the vast and
imposing temples to the small objects of daily life, make us believe
that we can approach the society and empathize with it.
This study introduces the reader to the broad span of Egyptian
history and cultural development from its origins to the arrival of
Islam. It examines the structure of Egyptian society, its changes over
time, and the ways in which the economy and religious institutions
were used to bind society together. Challenging some of the accepted
truths and highlighting the enormous gaps in our knowledge, the
author also explains the place of Egypt in the Western European
tradition that led to the development of academic Egyptology, and
considers how the West has constructed its own version of the
Egyptian past.
Robert G. Morkot
lectures in Egyptology at the University of
Exeter. His areas of interest include relations between Egypt and
other ancient societies, notably Nubia, and Egypt in the Western
tradition. Among his publications are

Nubian Rulers
(2000) and

Warfare
