Often characterized as a 'lost' civilization that was 'discovered'
by adventurers and archaeologists, ancient Egypt has fascin ated
and inspired many other cultures. Classical Greek and Roman writers
admired ancient Egyptian philosophy; in the eighteenth century,
secret societies like the Freemasons still upheld the wisdom of
ancient Egypt. But why? Christina Riggs introduces the history, art
and religion of Egypt from its earliest dynasties to its final fall
to Rome - and explores the influence ancient Egypt has had through
the centuries. Today, ancient Egypt is ubiquitous in museums,
television documentaries and tattoo parlours - wherever people look
for a past as ancient and impressive as they come. Looking for a
vanished past, Riggs argues, always serves some purpose in the
present.
