This account of the chequered path taken by this great culture over the millennia cannot claim to give more than a brief survey of the most essential facts and artistic monuments, owing to the limited amount of space available for the text and illustrations. But it is hoped that it may encourage the reader to study the original works, both in our museums and above all in Egypt itself, and so stimulate deeper understanding of one of the greatest cultures of antiquity.
