The Prodigies of Egypt by Murtada ibn al-'Afif This medieval treasury of Egyptian folklore and legends has been rediscovered in its classic English translation. Written by an obscure Arabian writer who studied in ancient Egypt, the book reports on traditional stories associated with the pyramids, the Flood, and the wonders of Egypt. First translated into French and later into English, the Prodigies of Egypt has influenced literary movements and preserved unique legends of Egypt not found in other sources. This edition brings the book to modern readers, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of ancient Egypt. With its unique blend of folklore and historical accounts, The Prodigies of Egypt is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history and mythology of Egypt.
