'In Ancient Egyptian society a woman was accorded legal rights equal to those of a man from the same social class and had the same expectation of a life after death.' 'Women in Ancient Egypt' is a detailed and fascinating study of the often overlooked contributions made by women of all classes to the political and social history of pharaonic Egypt, c.3100 BC to 30 BC.Using evidence gleaned from written records, monuments,sculpture,tomb-paintings and material found in tombs, including objects and human remains,the author has been able to build up an intriguing picture of the lives led by Ancient Egyptian women throughout the pharaonic period.The types of occupations and careers open to women are described; as are their domestic and personal lives - marriage,health and childbirth; the family;household chores undertaken by women; and their clothing,jewellery and beauty preparations.The women whose lives are fleshed out in these pages are largely the 'little people' of history, women who rarely excercised any power outside the home.In contrast,however,the final chapter deals with those women, surprisingly few in number,whose influence on the political affairs of their country was considerable and legendary.The book is supplemented by a collection of superb illustrations,a comprehensive bibliography - biblios to every chapter in the references section - along with detailed references. Barbara Watterson is a freelance lecturer in Egyptology and a frequent visitor to Egypt as a guest lecturer accompanying tours.Her previous publications include 'The Gods of Ancient Egypt' and 'Coptic Egypt'.See also rja2163 - rja2165 inclusive for similar title/topics.
