(Hardback)

This book is the first major publication based entirely on Manchester Museums Egyptology collections. It explores the Graeco-Roman Period (c. 300 BCE200 CE) of Egyptian history, asking to what extent our modern image of Egypt as a land of gold, sex, art and death is representative of ancient concerns and realities.

(Paperback)

This volume presents the latest research on three of the most important aspects of ancient Egyptian civilisation: mummies, magic and medicine. Drawing on recent archaeological fieldwork, new research on human remains, reassessments of ancient texts and modern experimental archaeology, it seeks to answer some of Egyptology's biggest questions.
