Features: In 1798, Napoleon led his army into Egypt, and the curtain of Egyptian archaeology was also officially raised. Through nearly two centuries of arduous excavations by archaeologists, the foundation for studying ancient Egyptian history was laid. The author of this book, Barry Kemp, is one of these archaeologists. In the book, he conducts a multi-angle analysis of the history of ancient Egypt before the New Kingdom, presenting unique insights on aspects such as ideology, economic forms, political life, and social structure, offering readers a fresh perspective. Barry Kemp attempts to change the dull and tedious nature of archaeological works, focusing on finding the best balance between academic rigor and readability.
