Ancient Egypt on 5 Deben a Day

Traveling in Egypt today can be a daunting prospect. Imagine what it was like in 1225 BC, during the rule of Rameses II. With Ancient Egypt on 5 Deben a Day, Egyptologist and archaeologist Donald P. Ryan has written an intriguing “travel guide” to one of the greatest cultures of antiquity.

Ryan offers useful advice on everything from deciphering hieroglyphics to mummifying household pets. But, as he show us, getting to know Egypt can be arduous. Here is the inside scoop on how to enter and travel through the country, conform to its customs and expectations, and appreciate its often mysterious culture. You’ll travel the Nile from north to south, stopping at such intriguing places as Memphis, Akhetaten, Abydos and Thebes, where Egypt’s grand past and present unfold before you. Along the way, Ryan offers a wealth of knowledge on everything from the numerous contradictions in Egyptian theology to the ins and outs of visiting a physician (he’ll probably prescribe a purge of one sort or another) to the sensitive topic of renegade pharaoh Akhenaten.

Egypt has long been a subject of broad popular interest, and this book provides an enjoyable glimpse of the ancient empire and its people.
