Everyday Life in Ancient Egypt Inhaltsangabe

What was it really like to live in Ancient Egypt—not as a pharaoh or high priest, but as an ordinary person? In Everyday Life in Ancient Egypt: What Was It Really Like?, historian and storyteller Thalos Virellon invites listeners on a vivid journey into the bustling streets, sunbaked homes, sacred temples, and fertile fields of one of history’s most fascinating civilisations. This richly illustrated and engaging guide brings the past to life by focusing not on kings and conquests, but on families, farmers, artisans, and scribes—those whose daily lives built the foundation of Egyptian greatness.

Rather than dry lists of dates and dynasties, this book explores the lived experiences of ancient Egyptians through the rhythms of a typical day and the values that shaped their world. From the moment Ra’s golden rays crept across the Nile, to the shared meals, spiritual devotions, bustling markets, and evening celebrations, this immersive exploration reveals how much the people of ancient Egypt shared with us—and how different their world really was.

Each chapter focuses on a key element of Egyptian life:

  • Waking Up with Ra shows how the sunrise shaped daily routines and how bread, beer, and basin baths started the day.
  • Home Sweet Mud-Brick Home explores the architecture, layout, and family dynamics of domestic life along the Nile.
  • All in a Day’s Work highlights the many professions in society, from farmers to craftsmen, scribes to soldiers—and even children’s chores.
  • Family First delves into the roles of parents, children, women, and the importance of kinship in Egyptian culture.
  • What’s for Dinner? examines the rich culinary life of ancient Egypt, from staple breads to feasts of figs, fish, and beer.
  • Dressed for the Desert looks at clothing, jewellery, grooming, and personal appearance in a hot, sun-drenched climate.
