Synopsis

Focusing on Thebes in 1360 BCE, How to Survive in Ancient Egypt is the ultimate guide to living in ancient Egypt, including all of the religious beliefs and sites to see.

Imagine you were transported back in time to Ancient Egypt and you had to start a new life there. How would you fit in? Where would you live? What would you eat? Where would you go to have your hair done? Who would you go to if you got ill, or if you were mugged in the street? All these questions, and many more, will be answered in this how-to guide for time travelers.

Part self-help guide, part survival guide, this lively and engaging book will help the listener deal with the many problems and new experiences that they will face, and also help them to thrive in this strange new environment.

Jeżeli to jest przewodnik po starożytnym Egipcie to ja jestem Matka Teresa z Kalkuty. Książka lepiej sprzedana niż napisana, ale pomijając fakt, że obok poradnika to ona nie stała to zawiera dużo ciekawej treści i wiele z niej wyniosłem. Chyba moja ulubiona ciekawostka to ta, że starożytni Egipcjani......more
