Ancient Egypt: Hori and his fellow students celebrate their graduation from medical school. In a bar brawl, he accidentally kills the vizier's eldest son.

At the same time, young ladies at the pharaoh's court drop dead without obvious cause. When the corpses are brought to the weryt, Hori, now trained in embalming and organ removal, discovers the girls were murdered. Only he can't leave the place without turning his life sentence into a death sentence—or ...

This book reveals the hidden history of the longest river in the world! Introducing ...

Reproduzida pelos pintores, biografada por escritores, representada por estrelas de cinema, Cleópatra é um dos grandes mitos da História. Optando por um olhar inovador e contemporâneo, a autora deste livro capta uma Cleópatra sedutora e fascinante, mas também culta e inteligente, uma mulher do nosso tempo no Egito de 20 séculos atrás. Cleópatra possuía uma cultura invejável: grande negociante, estrategista militar, falava pelo menos oito línguas e era versada em filosofia, alquimia e matemática.

It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a “hidden history” of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey’s massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World–first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar–redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs.

Today, we do not use our ancient cosmic orientation to relate to the natural world as we once did. It's no longer determined by where we are or what time it is by the Sun's daily motion across the sky. Our perception of the outside world has changed, and we have lost our sense of wholeness within a great system. Factors such as our work and play rhythms, clothing, diet, and travel are affected by climatic and seasonal factors. These factors affect our unconscious sense of timing and our ability to communicate with nature, which we often overlook.

On 26th November 1922, Howard Carter first peered into the newly opened tomb of an ancient Egyptian boy-king. When asked if he could see anything, he replied: ‘Yes, yes, wonderful things.' In Tutankhamun’s Trumpet, acclaimed Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson takes a unique approach to that tomb and its contents. Instead of concentrating on the oft-told story of the discovery, or speculating on the brief life and politically fractious reign of the boy king, Wilkinson takes the objects buried with him as the source material for a wide-ranging, detailed portrait of ancient Egypt.

Pour aller au-delà de la fascination exercée par la civilisation égyptienne, laissez-vous captiver par ses récits mythologiques et apprenez à les décoder pour mieux en comprendre la signification. Comme tous les grands récits façonnés par les Hommes, la mythologie égyptienne tente d'élucider le mystère des origines du monde, le rapport de l'homme à l'univers, aux dieux et à sa propre mort.

Sind es die staunenswerten Kunstschätze einer tausende Jahre blühenden Hochkultur? Wolfgang Korn macht mit diesem Hörbuch die ganze Faszination Ägyptens lebendig.

In this audiobook, you will find both the history and the mythology of ancient Egypt. This period of time in the Egyptian history is commonly accepted to be between the years circa 3900 BC and 332 BC. These are the years when the land of Egypt was united into a single kingdom and when Alexander the Great, the king of Macedonia, conquered Egypt and forced Queen Cleopatra the VII to surrender to the Roman Empire.

En África surgieron los primeros seres humanos, y Egipto probablemente dio origen a las primeras grandes civilizaciones, que continúan fascinando a las sociedades modernas alrededor del mundo casi 5.000 años más tarde. Desde la Biblioteca y el Faro de Alejandría hasta la gran pirámide de Guiza, los antiguos egipcios produjeron varias maravillas del mundo, revolucionaron la arquitectura y la construcción, crearon algunos de los primeros sistemas de matemáticas y medicina del mundo y establecieron lenguaje y arte que se extendieron por todo el mundo conocido.

When we think of Ancient Egypt, we picture movies with mazes, pyramids, traps, mummies, and symbols. And although some of these things were definitely part of it, there is so much more to this ancient civilization. Ancient Egypt was a North African society that grew in the lower banks of the Nile River, in what's now the nation of Egypt. Let’s explore some of the most important features of that society today, and try to grasp what transpired in the culture, the thoughts, the problems, and the development of the Egyptian region more than 5,000 years ago.

Durante los varios siglos en que el antiguo Egipto se irguió como una de las más grandes civilizaciones, si no la más grande, del mundo antiguo, los conflictos con sus enemigos jugaban a menudo un rol central en textos jeroglíficos y arte de los templos y tumbas....

This book tells of the legends of the gods of ancient Egypt, legends circulated during the "morning of the world" as described by the Egyptians, originally carved in stone, and written on papyrus, preserved for millennia until now. Although this book is intended to arouse the public's interest in the religion and civilization of ancient Egypt, it also fuels the imagination on the lost knowledge of the Egyptians.

Perché un serpente grande quanto il mondo intero si sta scagliando contro Ra con tutta la sua forza? Perché la dea Sekhmet è scesa sulla Terra e sta sterminando l'umanità? E perché Anubi, il dio dell'aldilà, sta pesando su una bilancia un cuore umano, affiancato dalla creatura più terrificante mai vista nell’antico Egitto? Migliaia di anni fa, in quella terra lontana ed affascinante chiamata Egitto, le persone veneravano strane divinità con il corpo d’uomo e la testa di animale.

From pop culture and politics to tourism and heritage, and from the Jazz Age to the climate crisis, it's impossible to imagine the twentieth century without the discovery of Tutankhamun - yet so much of the story remains untold. Here, for the first time, Christina Riggs weaves compelling historical analysis with tales of lives touched by an encounter with Tutankhamun, including her own. Treasured offers a bold new history of the young pharaoh who has as much to tell us about our world as his own.
