Description
Before the translation and decoding of Egyptian hieroglyphics, and the insights they provided, there were a lot of erroneous assumptions floating around about everyday life. I remember visiting the Egyptian wing of the British Museum and wondering who was who and what was what. It was daunting.
Recently I came across a wonderful book titled "The Murder of Tutankhamen", by Bob Brier. Brier is an Egyptologist with great insights into life in these times. More recent scholarship has since indicated Tut died of other unfortunate circumstances. (The man in my photograph is not Tut). The ancient Egyptians wrote everything down. And I do mean everything. They didn't need social media. They had it figured out before facebook. Their worries and concerns were not so mysterious. But very down to earth.
