The allure of Egypt is not exclusive to the modern world. Egypt
also held a fascination and attraction for people of the past. In
this book, academics from a wide range of disciplines assess the
significance of Egypt within the settings of its past. The
chronological span is from later prehistory, through to the
earliest literate eras of interaction with Mesopotamia and the
Levant, the Aegean, Greece and Rome. Ancient Perspectives on Egypt
includes both archaeological and documented evidence, which ranges
from the earliest writing attested in Egypt and Mesopotamia in the
late fourth millennium BC, to graffiti from Abydos that demonstrate
pilgrimages from all over the Mediterranean world, to the views of
Roman poets on the nature of Egypt. This book presents, for the
first time in a single volume, a multi-faceted but coherent
collection of images of Egypt from, and of, the past.
