Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating exploration of the tombs and inscriptions of the Middle Kingdom in Egypt. The author, meticulously analyzing these ancient monuments, sheds light on a period of Egyptian history that is often overshadowed by the grandeur of the Old Kingdom and the New Kingdom. The book examines the lives and achievements of the nomarchs, local rulers of the Hare nome, whose tombs are located at El Bersheh. These tombs, now in a ruinous state, reveal a fascinating glimpse into the social, political, and religious structures of the time. The author delves into the genealogical relationships of the nomarchs, piecing together their family histories using information gleaned from inscriptions within the tombs and from the quarries of Het-nub. This in-depth analysis provides a unique perspective on the complexities of power and succession within the nomarchies. By meticulously piecing together this complex puzzle, the author brings to life the lives and legacies of these ancient Egyptian rulers, offering a rich and nuanced understanding of their world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
