Podrobné informace

The renowned Egyptologist presents a fascinating and comprehensive history of Ancient Egyptian pyramids, mausolea and other funerary monuments. The royal tombs of ancient Egypt include some of the most stupendous monuments of all time, containing some of the greatest treasures to survive from the ancient world. This book is a history of the burial places of the rulers of Egypt from the very dawn of history down to the country's absorption into the Roman Empire, three millennia later. During this time, the tombs ranged from mudbrick-lined pits in the desert, through pyramid-topped labyrinths to superbly decorated galleries penetrating deep into the rock of the Valley of the Kings.The Royal Tombs of Ancient Egypt is the most comprehensive study of ancient Egyptian funerary monuments to date. Egyptologist Aidan Dodson examines not only the burial places themselves, but also the temples built to provide for the dead pharaoh's soul. The volume covers the tombs of both native and foreign monarchs as well as royal family members.
