Exploring Ancient Egypt

"Archaeologist Ian Shaw describes the period in which each site was occupied, the history and methods of the site's excavation, and the principal finds. Maps of each site's location, along with drawings and photographs of monuments and artifacts, illustrate each chapter. Based on the most current archaeological research, Exploring Ancient Egypt offers students, travelers, and arm-chair archaeologists a wealth of clues to the ways ancient Egyptians lived, worked, and made sense of their world."--Jacket.
