Opis

Many cultures and races have left their mark on Egypt, but none have eclipsed the surviving customs from ancient Egypt, from fertility rituals and funerary rites to the cult of saints, snake-charmers and magicians. Here, Sattin has tracked down examples of ancient survivals in the hurly-burly of modern Egypt.
