About this book

Cross-disciplinary studies in cultural history require regions with unusually favorable conditions of preservation as well as relevance to the disciplines and cultures involved. The first cataract of the Nile offers precisely such a combination, and this work employs a diverse set of academic perspectives to present a diachronic picture of its cultural and geographic history over a period of more than 5,000 years.

"So bietet diese vom DAI Kairo herausgegebene, ansprechend gestaltete und gut lesbare Dokumentation ein sehr breites Themenspektrum und ermöglicht fundierte Einblicke in die mannigfaltigen Forschungen über die kulturellen Hinterlassenschaften in dieser Region des heutigen Ägypten."
