This book identifies nearly 200 of the most important of these works, and describes them vividly and informatively in ways that reveal how each is a key object in its own right -- a creation that commemorates a great event, heralds the start of a new era or offers an unparalleled insight into daily life in Ancient Egypt. From a 5,000-year-old Predynasitc pottery bowl adorned with model hippopotamuses, to a miraculously preserved pair of sandals woven from grass, reeds, and papyrus, this is a compelling and beautifully illustrated overview of three millennia of civilization on the banks of the Nile."--Front cover flap. 651 0 $a Egypt $x Antiquities. 651 0 $a Egypt $x Antiquities $v Pictorial works. 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103013647.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=476743E44DCE11E89F5D1D5C97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
