Description
Early Dynastic Egypt explores the formative period of ancient Egyptian civilization, spanning five centuries before the construction of the Great Pyramid at Giza. This period saw the creation of a distinctive culture that endured for 3,000 years.
The book examines the background to this great achievement, tracing the re-discovery of Early Dynastic Egypt and explaining how the dynasties established themselves in government. It also considers the impact of the early state on individual communities and regions.
With over thirty years of international scholarship and excavation behind it, this highly illustrated volume presents a comprehensive understanding of this pivotal period in Egyptian history.
