Produktbeschreibung
Seventeen Egyptologists and archaeologists probe the most compelling mysteries of ancient Egypt in this illustrated collection of 70 brief essays. Answers to age-old questions about Egyptian burial rituals, architecture, and royalty are provided, and recent discoveries are discussed--evidence that Tutankhamen was murdered, boats buried intact deep in the desert beside the tombs of the earliest kings, unexplained shafts inside the Great Pyramids aligned with the stars, and a massive mausoleum built for the many sons of Ramses II. The essays are supplemented with evocative photographs, diagrams, maps and plans. Diecisiete egiptólogos y arqueólogos exploran los misterios más fascinantes a la luz de los más recientes descubrimientos e investigaciones en esta colección ilustrada de 70 ensayos breves. Se proporcionan respuestas para algunas de las preguntas más comunes sobre rituales de muerte, arquitectura, y la monarquía, y descubrimientos recientes son discutidos: pruebas de que Tutankhamón fue asesinado; barcos intactos enterrados en lo más profundo del desierto junto a las tumbas de los primeros reyes; inexplicables respiraderos dentro de la Gran Pirámide aparentemente alineados con las estrellas; y un enorme mausoleo construido para los numerosos hijos de Ramses II. Documentado con fotografías, dibujos, mapas, y planos.
