Ancient Egypt. Temples, Tombs, Hieroglyphs

The book compares official archaeological reports with quasi-scientific gossip, legends of an ancient civilization, and the real lives of people from distant eras, which often turned out to be more interesting than fiction. You will learn about the lives of pharaohs and queens, artists and wizards, officials and commoners, as well as gain an insight into the monuments of culture, architecture, and writing. The vivid, lively language of narration and beautiful illustrations will immerse you in the world of ancient civilization and allow you to feel the mysterious atmosphere of a distant past.
