Synopsis
This scholarly work by W. Stevenson Smith was first published in 1958 by Penguin Books Ltd. This, the second edition was revised by William Kelly Simpson and printed in 1981 (ISBN: 0300053282) by Yale University Press. The civilization of ancient Egypt extends from the fourth millennium BC to the conquest of Alexander. The Egyptians in their tombs recreated life for the dead in a naturalistic way, often against the background of the landscape in which they lived. They have also left us revealing portraits ranging from the civil servants of the kings to the kings and queens themselves who built the pyramids at Giza and Saqqara; the tombs at Thebes, including the treasure-filled burial-place of Tut-ankh-amon; the temples of Luxor and Karnak; the palaces of Akhenaten at Tell el Amarama amd of Amenhotep III at Thebes. The monuments with their decoration as well as many other works of art are reproduced in this book with over 400 illustrations.
