Product Description

Product Description

In Dr David's study, the builders of the pyramids are revealed as simple people with ordinary preoccupations: who worried about their families, grumbled about working conditions - and even planned a strike to improve them.


From the Back Cover

In Rosalie David's hands, the Egyptian builders of the pyramids are revealed as simple people, leading ordinary lives while they are engaged on building the great tomb for a Pharoah. This is an engrossing detective story, bringing to the general reader a fascinating picture of a special community that lived in Egypt and built one of the pyramids, some four thousand years ago.

4.0 out of 5 stars Strikes (!) in Ancient Egypt, 25 Feb 2008
By Gina Sergent "Be Precise" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Pyramid Builders of Ancient Egypt: Modern Investigation of Pharaoh's Workforce (Hardcover)
Excellent description of life as a Worker in Egypt -housing, diet, health-care, legal. Mainly concentrates on the town of Kahun and Petrie's excavation of 1888/89. But a good general description for all that.
