Travel back to the dawn of Egypt and meet the builders, priests, and kings who shaped a civilization.
In the Time of the Pharaohs offers a clear, accessible tour of ancient Egypt’s early era. It traces how rival north and south kingdoms united, how art and architecture evolved, and how beliefs about life after death guided temple and tomb design. The pages bring together archaeological findings, inscriptions, and the stories scholars have uncovered to illuminate the region’s beginnings and its enduring legacy.
The book presents a through-line from the first dynasties to the rise of monumental culture, focusing on places like Hierakonpolis and Memphis, the development of tombs and temples, and the people who shaped early Egyptian society. It invites readers to see how material culture—vases, palettes, statues, and inscriptions—reveals the daily life, religion, and politics of prehistoric Egypt.
Ideal for curious readers of history and archaeology who want a concise, well‑grounded look at Egypt before the pyramids.
