Treasures of Tutankhamun and the Egyptian Museum of Cairo

"This book takes a close look at the history of ancient Egypt, era by era, illustrating a selection of the most important objects from the hundreds of thousands conserved at the Museum. Its pages feature pictures by a world-famous art photographer and short descriptions by an internationally renowned Egyptologist, presenting an exciting gallery of objects crafted over the course of more than 40 centuries. These objects range from the period preceding the rise of the single monarchy to the era of the great pyramids, and from the mysterious Intermediate Periods to the glories of the Middle and New Kingdoms, culminating with the decline of the splendid Late Period."--BOOK JACKET.
