Mr. Ruffle explores, through the archaeological remains, Egypt's legacy in the arts and sciences, technology, politics, religion, and philosophy. At the same time, he takes a close look at humble artifacts often ignored by Egyptologists and offers an informed and entertaining view of life in ancient Egypt. After dealing with the history and geography of Egypt, and its specific archaeological problems, Mr. Ruffle examines the major architectural and artistic monuments within the context of Egyptian history, from predynastic times to the Copts. He then reconstructs the daily life of the ancient Egyptians~from pharaoh to laborer~ largely through an analysis of the minor antiquities. Subsequently, he treats the structure of the state; methods of farming and food production; taste in dress and adornment; language, literature, and art; and beliefs, customs, and funerary practices. A comprehensive picture of a highly organized and intelligent people emerges from Mr. Ruffie's lively account. Impressively wide in scope and intended for the general reader as well as the student, this is a book that is certain to appeal to anyone interested in the world of the ancient Egyptians.
