Archaeological discoveries have confirmed biblical and other early accounts of the central role that ancient Egypt and the Near East played in the rise of civilization. In this colorfully-illustrated reference for young adult readers, the history and practices of the region are traced from Egypt's Old Kingdom (c. 2650-2150 BCE) through the Israelites' rise and dispersal, and the reign of the Persian Empire. The book includes a foreword by a US professor of classical and modern languages, literatures, and cultures; time lines; color maps; and a glossary.
