Discover the origins and evolution of Ancient Egypt through this groundbreaking work by Flinders Petrie.

Originally published in 1897, A History of Egypt from the Earliest Times to the XVIth Dynasty by renowned British archaeologist Flinders Petrie offers an in-depth exploration of the rise of Egyptian civilisation. Tracing its development from its prehistoric beginnings to the end of the Middle Kingdom, this work provides a thorough account of the political, cultural, and societal transformations that shaped one of the ancient world’s most remarkable civilisations.

Flinders Petrie (1853-1942) was a pioneering archaeologist whose innovative methods revolutionised the study of Ancient History. Born in Kent, England, he developed an early passion for archaeology and began surveying Roman monuments as a teenager. Over the course of his career, Petrie made many significant discoveries, including the Merneptah Stele, a key artifact in Ancient History. His exceptional methodology and numerous contributions to the field earned him a knighthood in 1923.

This classic volume has been republished in a high-quality modern edition, complete with a newly commissioned biography of the author. A History of Egypt from the Earliest Times to the XVIth Dynasty remains an essential resource for historians, archaeologists, and anyone captivated by the history of Ancient Egypt.
