Summary

"Ancient Egypt has long fascinated citizens of the modern world. Mummies, pyramids, pharaohs, and other elements have inspired a romantic and sometimes mystical view of this ancient society. However, viewed through this lens, the facts are sometimes overlooked and the lasting contributions may be obscured. This book takes a down-to-earth, factual look at ancient Egypt. The engaging main text describes its history and culture, while engaging sidebars highlight common misconceptions. The "History Happened Here" section brings this ancient civilization to life, showing readers the places and artifacts that remain today-a visual reminder that the past has very real effects on the present"--, Provided by publisher
