Summary

The ancient site of Tell el-Amarna in Middle Egypt was the capital city ofthe heretic pharaoh Akhenaten and his chief consort, Nefertiti. Occupiedfor just sixteen or so years in the fourteenth century BC, the city laylargely abandoned and forgotten until excavations over the last hundredyears brought it back into prominence.Based on more than three decades of research and excavation byBarry Kemp, the world authority on the city and its enigmatic pharaoh,this definitive account provides new insight into Amarna and its people.Professor Kemp brings to life the royal family and their offspring,including Tutankhamun, as well as prominent citizens such as the highpriest Panehsy, the vizier Nakht, the general Ramose, and the sculptorThutmose. It is a tour de force of archaeological writing, brilliantlyillustrated with more than 260 photographs, evocative line drawings,and reconstructions by the author.
