Description
A History of Ancient Egypt, Volume 3: From the Shepherd Kings to the End of the Theban Monarchy
By John Romer, this final volume completes a lifelong project that chronicles the history of Ancient Egypt. It tells the story of an era dominated by figures like Akhenaten, Tutankhamun, and Ramesses II, but also explores international trade, cultural exchange, and sophisticated art during times of violent change.
Romer carefully reconstructs the real story of the New Kingdom from the archaeological record, correcting prevailing narratives that cast it as an imperial state power. Instead, he reveals a culture more beautiful and beguiling than previously imagined, using evidence from broken artefacts and preserved letters to build his case.
