    Daily Life In Ancient Egpyt Summary

    In this critique of Kasia Szpakowska’s book, Daily Life in Ancient Egpyt, I am going to discuss her purpose, my likes and dislikes, her use of images, and how I felt this book related to this course. Daily Life in Ancient Egypt was an excellent choice for this course. The information supplements the in-class lectures by providing sufficient information into the life of the mundane versus the life of the rulers and pharaohs. It provides information that is clear and concise so the reader doesn’t have to dissect the information and gains a clear understanding of real life for the Ancient Egyptians.

    Syri Ancient History-Modern Conflict

    The ongoing conflict in our world that has led to the destruction and theft of ancient artefacts is a reality that the ‘Syria: Ancient History-Modern Conflict’ exhibit, housed in the Ian Potter Museum, endeavours to raise awareness about.

    Egyptian Civilization Essay

    Ancient civilization is full of many different stories and different ways of living. The ancient civilizations that we have studied such as Ancient Mesopotamia, ancient Eqypt, and ancient Greece are all very unique in their own ways but the greatest one in my opinion would be Ancient Egypt.
