About this book
From the first small settlements along the Nile to the powerful rule of the pharaohs, this book explores how ancient Egypt's government blended political authority with religious belief. It explains how each pharaoh was seen as a living incarnation of the god Horus, and how this divine link helped unite the kingdom under a single rule. Readers will also discover the basics of Egyptian law and see how those ancient ideas still echo in governments today.
