The Twilight of Ancient Egypt: 1st Millennium B.C.by Karol Mysliwiec Translatorer David Lorton

The Twilight of Ancient Egypt: 1st Millennium B.C.by Karol Mysliwiec translated from the Polish by David Lorton is a history of ancient Egypt from the 11th century to the 4th century B.C. this was after the fall of the 25th dynasty. According to Mysliwiec there isn't much analysis on this era. Most of the book describes art and archaeology. There were various influences from the surrounding peoples. Political history is touched upon occasionally the Pharaohs tended to be weak there were occasional invasions. The Persians took over Egypt twice until they were eventually defeated by Alexander the Great. I don't know much about this myself so I can't comment on the accuracy of the analysis. The book concludes with a discussion of Polish archaeology in the region. The translation is very good. Almost every page has a picture. There is extensive quoting of primary sources. As well as the usual endnotes and bibliography.

Recommended! I need more on ancient Egypt.
