Reviews

Tsenhor's story is certainly proof that the study of 'ordinary' Egyptian women is as vital as the study of Hatshepsut and Cleopatra to our understanding of real life in ancient Egyp--and just as exciting and entertaining to read! --Ancient Egypt Dr. Donker van Heel . . . has a great gift for making the very complex material he works on accessible to non-specialists. Furthermore, he generally manages to make his audience laugh while doing so. This book confirms these talents, and is highly recommended. --Chris Naunton, Egyptian Archaeology This book aims to forever change the general view on women in ancient Egypt, that is far too often based on the lives of Nefertiti, Hatshepsut and Cleopatra. --Amun-Ra Egyptology Blog
