Opis

The Egyptians believed that the creator god Ptah brought the world into being by naming everything in it. Names had great power, and kings often over-wrote their own names on the monuments of earlier rulers. This is an illustrated guide to reading, writing and understanding ancient Egyptian names, epithets, titles and phrases.
