The book also covers topics such as the sources of raw materials, the organization of workshops, and the social and economic factors that influenced the development of these industries. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of ancient Egypt, as well as those interested in the science and technology of ancient civilizations.1926. There are several periods of Egyptian history, lasting in some cases two or three hundred years, about which very little is known, and even of the periods that are better known the information is very partial. With such gaps in the existing knowledge, a final statement regarding the earliest or latest production of use of any material is impossible, and all that can be done is to give the dates for which the various materials have been recorded.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
