مقبرة فرعون الأسطورية.. الحياة والموت في وادي الملوك

#### Hageman's book is deeply captivating, and thanks to its unique source material—scattered fragments of novels, protocols, and letters that were accidentally preserved in a nearby rubbish dump—it brings the reader closer to those who lived and worked there. Anyone interested in history in general, and Egypt in particular, should read this creative book! - Magnus Vasterborough. In the Valley of the Kings - the legendary tomb of the pharaohs - not only death, but also life was present. Next to the valley was the village of Deir el-Medina, where all the builders, painters, scribes and other craftsmen who needed to build these unique tombs lived. Here we meet them and their families, three thousand years later, but so closely that the distance is easily forgotten. The sands of the desert preserved not only their homes, churches, and graves, but also a surprising number of their accounts, meeting minutes, letters, and private diaries. Thanks to the documents, Sophia Hagemann is able to reconstruct the lives of the villagers - during feasts, at court, in the kitchen or in the depths of tombs - thus providing many interesting information about life and death in ancient Egypt.
