Book Synopsis Community and Identity in Ancient Egypt by : Deborah Vischak
Book excerpt: This book examines an elite Old Kingdom cemetery at the southern boundary of ancient Egypt, where the local community developed a unique visual expression of texts, images, and architecture in their tombs. Deborah Vischak argues that localized communities are an important source of identity in ancient Egypt.
