A History of Ancient Egypt, Volume 3

Focusing on the New Kingdom of Ancient Egypt, this work by archaeologist John Romer explores the era through the lives of iconic figures like Akhenaten, Tutankhamun, and Ramesses II. However, he emphasizes that history is shaped by broader social dynamics, including trade and cultural exchange. Romer critiques traditional Egyptology narratives, revealing a richer, more complex culture through archaeological evidence. This final volume of his extensive research solidifies his reputation as a leading chronicler of Ancient Egypt.
