This new volume offers insight into the burial practices of the
ancient Egyptians. It looks in detail at architecture and
construction techniques and traces the development of individual
tombs into lavish complexes. These sites also give us an
understanding of ancient beliefs: paintings, statues, carvings and
texts depict scenes both from mythology and from daily life. The
Great Pyramids themselves are testimony to the status of the kings,
who were worshipped as gods after death. Lavishly illustrated with
photographs and detailed plans of the major sites, this informative
book will inspire the reader with its fresh and authoritative view
of this fascinating ancient civilization.
