Original title: A History of Ancient Egypt

Translated by Juan Candelas

Anyone who wants to know Ancient Egypt will find in this History a broad, rigorous and documented introduction to this millenary civilization. Marc van de Mieroop not only pays attention to the periods and dynasties following the chronological account, but also provides many other elements such as the contextualization of archaeological evidence, the translation of written sources or the discussion of specific documents. The text is supplemented by numerous illustrations, maps, special topics and discussion issues, as well as lists of kings, glossary, bibliography and indexes. An essential tool for the specialist and an exciting read for those interested.
