Описание:
While historians such as Herodotus, Plutarch and Tacitus tell much about the political and economical worlds of the Egyptian, Greek and Roman civilizations, papyri provide information about their society, life and people. In this book, the author demonstrates how papyrological documents are important in writing the history of the ancient world. He also discusses the culture of papyrus and the usefulness of its documentation. This is an excellent informative and serious book for scholars and students of papyrology and Egyptology.Похожие книги
