Древние народы Египта представляются нам как носители высшей цивилизации, прибывшие как будто из другого мира.Уже шесть тысяч лет назад, в период, когда люди земли еще с трудом покидали каменный век, рождая культуру более или менее одного уровня для всех регионов планеты,египтяне представляют барьеры человеческих возможностей,как бы в силу своего жизненного опыта в другом,необыкновенно развитом, мире.

Spencer A.J., Death in Ancient Egypt — 1984 (Pelican Books)
In this survey, the author gives an account of Egyptian burial customs, the reasons for their existence and how they changed in response to developments in religion. The author describes the tombs and the objects inside them - furniture, food, inscriptions, temples for animal gods - and shows how the Egyptians coped with the problems of security involved in guarding the afterlife of their dead. He goes on to demonstrate how recent scientific developments have added a new dimension to research, enabling scholars to trace family relationships, identify prevalent diseases and sometimes to discover the full pathological case histories of mummies, producing a detailed picture of this culture.

Farrokh K., Shadows in the Desert. Ancient Persia at War — 2007
The empires of ancient Persia remain as mysterious today as they were to the scholars of Ancient Greece and Rome. Although Alexander the Great s conquest of Persia is legendary, the military successes of the Achaemenid, Parthian, and Sassanian empires, along with their revolutionary military technology, tactics, and culture have been almost forgotten in the sands of the East. Containing information never before published in English, Shadows in the Desert provides a comprehensive history of Persia s wars with East and West from the 6th century BC, and offers an insight into the exchange of ideas and culture that occurred during these clashes in military technology, the arts, medicine, religion, and science. This beautifully illustrated book delves into the rich heritage of the Persians, which was spread through war and conquest, and which, after the fall of the Sassanians, continued to impact upon civilizations around the world.
