Temples Tombs and Hieroglyphs: A Popular History of Ancient Egypt
New York: William Morrow 2007 "Temples Tombs and Hieroglyphs brings ancient Egypt to life as never before. Lavishly illustrated with pictures maps photographs and charts it offers tantalizing glimpses into Egyptian society and everyday life; amazing stories of the pharaohs and the rise and fall of great dynasties; religion and culture; folklore and fairy tales; stories of the explorers scientists and unmitigated scoundrels who sought to unravel or exploit the ageless mysteries; and breathtaking insights into the magnificent architectural wonders that rose up from the desert sands. Revised and updated to include the results of the most recent historical research and archaeological finds Dr. Mert's book is unhampered by stuffy prose and dry academic formality. Instead it is a vibrant colorful and fun excursion for anyone who's ever fantasized about exploring the Valley of the Kings viewing up close the treasures of the temple of Queen Hatshepsut or sailing down the Nile on Cleopatra's royal barge."234p. illus. index. 2nd Ed.

Bickerman Elias J.
Chronology of the Ancient World
Ithaca NY: Cornell University Press 1968 Aspects of Greek and Roman Life series "The absolute dates of events in ancient history have been difficult to calculate because of the complex adjustments and computations involved. The methods of relative dating developed by archaeologists and of direct dating established by modern science depend upon the interpretation of historical material which is virtually inaccessible. Using dates supplied by the ancients themselves Professor Bickerman suggests the means to convert them into units of our own dating system thus providing an invaluable reference for all students of the ancient world. 253p. illus tables.
