Posted: Tue Mar 20, 2018 2:41 pm Post subject: Old Kingdom Recommendations |
|
|
Hello, I am looking for books in the English language with up to date information that specifically focus in depth on Egypt's Old Kingdom. Anything that focuses on sun temples or Heliopolis is a plus, but not a must. All recommendations are appreciated! _________________ "You made heaven far away just to rise in it, to see all you make, Being unique and risen in your aspects of being as 'living Aten' manifest, shining, far yet near". |
