Horae Aegyptiacae
Author: Reginald Stuart Poole
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781473337954
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
"Horae Aegyptiacae" is a fascinating exploration of Egyptian chronology written by R. S. Poole and first published in 1850. It looks at the ancient Egyptian's conception of time and the seasons as extrapolated from archaeological ruins, as well as providing a detailed history of the first nineteen Egyptian dynasties. This book is highly recommended for those with an interest in ancient Egypt and it is not to be missed by collectors of allied literature. Contents include: "The Months and Years, Properly so Called," "The Three Seasons of the Year," "The Tropical Year," "The Vague Year," "Its Antiquity," "The Names of the Months in Hieroglyphics," "The Earliest Known Mention of the Vague Year, in a Hieroglyphic Inscription," "Names of the Months in the Timrs of the Ptolemies and Caesars, and in the Present Day," etc. Reginald Stuart Poole (1832 - 1895) was an English numismatist, archaeologist, and orientalist whose best work is arguably his contributions to Encyclopaedia Britannica on the subjects of on Egypt, Hieroglyphics and Numismatics. He also worked on "Smith's Dictionary of the Bible," and was "Keeper of Coins" at the British Museum. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
