Conversations with Mummies

Rick Archbold and Rosalie David

The secrets of ancient Egypt are revealed in this lavishly illustrated study that explores the advances in historical research made possible by the latest state-of-the-art paleopathology technology. The dialogues in this important discussion bring to life a variety of ancient peoples—from the scribe who painted on the walls to the royal family of Sethos I—and sheds light on the daily life in the time of the pharaohs. Also discussing the work of daring researchers who reenact mummification rituals, this fascinating volume offers a wealth of knowledge about the scientific, cultural, and historical impacts of mummies.
