Secretos del Antiguo Egipto

Padró i Parcerisa, Josep

Egypt is an inexhaustible passion. As much as we visit its monuments, fix its footprints in museums, dig its sites or try to recover its past through books or documentaries, we will never be able to reveal all its secrets. Josep Padró, one of the greatest specialists in Ancient Egypt, has collected in this work a multitude of surprising aspects little or nothing known to the general public, offering him the opportunity to approach the excavations of the Sehu tomb in Heracleópolis Magna, learn about the language, writing, religion and customs of one of the richest and most complex civilizations we know, or discover the plot that ended the life of Rameses III. Secrets of Ancient Egypt is thus not a history of Egypt, nor is it a global exposition of Pharaonic civilization: it is a compendium of many of the aspects of a civilization that we often know of only mummies and pyramids but which, a closer look shows us a world closer to us than we could imagine.
