With spectacular monuments such as the Pyramids and the Sphinx and a view of the afterlife that produced thousands of mummies, relics, and myths, ancient Egypt has fascinated everyone from Napoleon Bonaparte to schoolchildren around the world. The Compact Timeline History of Ancient Egypt not only explores the lives of the pharaohs and other historical figure, but also looks in detail at the daily lives of ordinary people - scribes, priests, and villagers - who maintained the machinery of the state. The book explains the intricacies of the culture's religious beliefs; examines ancient Egypt's art, relics, temples, monuments and language; and follows the rhythms of an agricultural society.
