Publisher's Synopsis

The discipline of Egyptology has been criticized for being too insular, with little awareness of the development of archaeologies elsewhere. It has remained theoretically underdeveloped. For example, Egyptologists and Africanists have rarely considered the role of Ancient Egypt within Africa. Egypt's own view of itself has been neglected; views of it in the ancient past, in more recent times and today have remained underexposed. The Complete Set of Encounters with Ancient Egypt is a series of eight books, which addresses these issues. The books interrelate, inform and illuminate one another and will appeal to a wide market including academics, students and the general public interested in Archaeology, Egyptology, Anthropology, Architecture, Design and History. This is an indispensable acquisition in any library.
