Step back 3,000 years in time with the fascinating journal of Nakht, a young scribe. The year is 1465 BC and Nakht`s family is moving from their village to Memphis, where his father has just become an important scribe. With Nakht, we explore this bustling Egyptian city: visiting the craftsmen`s workshops and the shipyards; watching a burial ritual; and, learning how the land is farmed, how houses are built and how to fish and hunt. Most thrilling of all, he and his sister, Tamyt, witness a tomb robbery in the pyramids, and end up meeting the King of Egypt! This is an accessible, informative insight into Egyptian culture and everyday life.ISBN
