Summary:
Spend 24
hours
with the
ancient
Egyptians.
Ancient
Egypt
wasn't all pyramids, sphinxes and gold sarcophagi. For your average Egyptian,
life
was tough, and work was hard, conducted under the burning gaze of the sun god Ra. During the course of a
day
in the
ancient
city of Thebes (modern-day Luxor),
Egypt
's religious capital, we meet 24 Egyptians from all strata of society - from the king to the bread-maker, the priestess to the fisherman, the soldier to the midwife - and get to know what the real
Egypt
was like by spending an hour in their company. We encounter a different one of these characters - all from different walks of
life
- every hour and every chapter, and through their eyes see what an average
day
in
ancient
Egypt
was really like.
