A richly illustrated guide to the art, materials, and craftsmanship of ancient Egypt.

Written by pioneering Egyptologist W. M. Flinders Petrie, this accessible history follows Egyptian creative achievement from prehistoric work through the dynastic and classical periods. Petrie examines sculpture, relief, painting, architecture, jewellery, metalwork, glass, pottery, ivory, woodwork, plaster, clothing, and the technical traditions behind them.
