This book is about the myths, gods, and concepts of the world of one of the oldest and most mysterious civilizations - Ancient Egypt.
The book tells how the ancient Egyptians envisioned the structure of the world, the birth of the sun, life, and the afterlife. The reader will learn why the flooding of the Nile was more important than anything else, which gods governed the fate of people, and why mummies, statues, and pyramids were created.
Myths, legends, and historical facts come together to form a complete picture of the civilization that stretched along the Nile and left behind temples, tombs, and many mysteries.
Colorful illustrations help to envision the gods, sacred animals, temples, and scenes from myths, making the narrative vivid and understandable.
