Product Description
From the British Museum, the premier academic center of ancient Egyptian culture and artifacts besides Egypt itself, comes a new, exciting book for kids exploring ancient Egypt through its geography and its effect on culture.
Providing a fascinating look at how geography and the environment shapes human civilization, Atlas of Ancient Egypt gives children a comprehensive look at the history and culture of ancient Egypt, while also demonstrating a new way to think about how history and culture are often shaped by the very places in which they occur.
Divided into four main sections, the Atlas' first section gives background information about Egypt's history and geography. The second section explains how Egypt was formed and how the environment there shaped the development of the ancient world. The third contains maps and descriptions detailing the histories of the Nile Delta, the Nile Valley, and the deserts and oases. The final section looks at recent history and the ways in which historians uncover these amazing secrets. Breathtaking photographs and compelling facts pull young readers into one of the most remarkable places on earth-ancient Egypt.
