关于此电子书

Forgotten Pyramid Kings explores the often-overlooked pharaohs of ancient Egypt's Old and Middle Kingdoms, revealing their significant contributions to pyramid construction and Egyptian society. It examines how these ancient rulers, overshadowed by figures like Khufu, shaped the evolution of pyramid complexes and influenced the economic and religious landscape of their time. The book argues that pyramid construction was deeply intertwined with Egypt's stability and cohesion, not just royal ambition.

The book uncovers intriguing facts, such as the evolution from the Step Pyramid of Djoser to later designs, showcasing engineering advancements. It also scrutinizes the reigns and pyramid projects of pharaohs like Userkaf, highlighting their administrative policies and religious innovations. Through archaeological findings and recent Egyptology scholarship, the book re-evaluates traditional interpretations, offering a nuanced perspective on these ancient rulers.

Divided into three sections, the book first introduces the evolution of pyramid construction. The second section delves into detailed biographies of ""forgotten"" kings, and the final section synthesizes these findings, examining patterns and trends to understand why some pharaohs faded into obscurity despite significant contributions. Forgotten Pyramid Kings offers a valuable perspective, shifting focus to less-celebrated figures to provide a broader understanding of ancient Egyptian society and pyramid construction.
