Description
Gods and Pharaohs in Egyptian Mythology by Geraldine Harris is a richly illustrated journey into the fascinating world of ancient Egypt’s religion, legends, and rulers. Written in an accessible yet scholarly style, the book introduces the pantheon of Egyptian gods—Ra, Isis, Osiris, Horus, and many more—while revealing their roles in shaping the culture’s beliefs about life, death, and the afterlife. Harris weaves together mythological tales, historical context, and archaeological discoveries, bringing to life both the divine beings and the pharaohs who claimed to rule by their favor. Lavish artwork and photographs of ancient artifacts enhance the storytelling, making the gods’ powers, relationships, and symbolic meanings vivid for the reader. Special sections explore temple rituals, funerary practices, and the significance of hieroglyphs in preserving these myths for millennia. This volume is both a visual feast and an authoritative guide, ideal for history lovers, mythology enthusiasts, and students alike. It’s a gateway into the spiritual and political heart of one of the world’s greatest civilizations.
