Egyptian Towns and Cities (Shire Egyptology)
Sinopsis
This book surveys the main kinds of urban
settlement and town planning that existed
in ancient Egypt before the Hellenistic period.
The evolution and growth of Predynastic villages
is traced as an essential prelude to the much
greater achievements of the Pharaohs in
establishing first towns and then cities. The
later growths are shown to be of two basic
types, royal foundations and those which
underwent a natural expansion throughout
history. From this they are classified as
constituting various standard types based on
provincial centres, planned workmen's villages,
military and frontier towns, towns inhabited by
funerary priests and, ultimately, royal
residences and the capitals. The range of size
and material is tremendous, covering small
closely knit communities of a few hundred
people, towns with several thousand inhabitants
and vast cities, as large as any in the ancient
world, with tens of thousands of citizens.
