Ramessid Biographies with Prof. Elizabeth Frood
Published 1 year, 5 months ago
Description
Elizabeth Frood is Associate Professor of Egyptology and Director of the Griffith Institute at the University of Oxford, UK. In a lively discussion, Dr. Frood shares her insights into ancient lives and how people living in the non-royal sphere approached their immortality. Statues, texts and graffiti show us the minds of these people and how they depicted their concerns, beliefs and ideas. It's a great conversation and I think you'll really enjoy it!
Prof. Frood's book: Biographical Texts from Ramessid Egypt, 2007.
