A comprehensive, illustrated account of the fascinating mythology and ancient history of one of the world's oldest - and longest surviving - civilisations. There was a culture in ancient Egypt that existed for over three millennia and produced monumental buildings that have stood the ravages of time. But it also produced what was, on the whole, a stable state, dependant on the River Nile, around which an elaborate religion developed. In Part One of Ancient Egypt Myth & History, the mythology of this religion is explained against its historical context while Part Two is a concise and informative A-Z of the dynasties, rulers, historic sites and archaeological objects of ancient Egypt, from the beginning of its civilisation to its overturn by the Romans.
