Book excerpt: Also included are maps of Egypt and the surrounding regions and a chronological list of rulers and their dates, and the dynasties and kingdoms to which they are assigned Egyptologists." "This reference is aimed primarily at students and those interested in ancient Egypt. The arrangement of the book as a dictionary means that it can be used independently as a research tool or in conjunction with other works, such as histories or translations of Egyptian texts. The user can find concise definitions and descriptions, and brief accounts of military actions. Through the cross-referencing of each entry, and in conjunction with the bibliography, the reader can pursue wider issues and locate more detailed studies."--BOOK JACKET.
