Embark on a three-thousand-year journey along the banks of the Nile! How did the Egyptians build the pyramids? What were obelisks used for? Why did their gods sometimes have animal heads? How did the people of ancient Egypt live, write, work, and dress? From Tutankhamun to Ramses II, and from Nefertiti to the tomb artisans, this book tells the fascinating story of the Egypt of the pharaohs in clear, lively language. Young readers will discover hieroglyphs, temples, mummies, beliefs, and works of art, as well as the daily lives of families, farmers, scribes, and builders. Packed with original illustrations, *Ancient History: Ancient Egypt Junior* brings an extraordinary civilization to life without getting bogged down in complex details. It also corrects old misconceptions in light of recent discoveries: the pyramids were not built by armies of slaves, and Egyptian monuments do not conceal any mysterious technology from other worlds. A concise, accessible, and exciting book for discovering ancient Egypt, understanding its true secrets, and meeting the men and women who brought the land of the Nile to life.
