The History of Egypt Under the Ptolemies is a comprehensive account of the ancient Egyptian civilization during the Ptolemaic dynasty, written by Samuel Sharpe. The book covers the period from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC to the Roman conquest of Egypt in 30 BC. Sharpe traces the political, social, and cultural developments of this period, which saw the rise of the Ptolemaic dynasty as the ruling power in Egypt. The author also explores the influence of Greek culture on Egypt during this time, including the spread of Hellenistic art and philosophy. Sharpe's work draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, inscriptions, and archaeological discoveries, to provide a detailed and engaging account of one of the most fascinating periods in Egyptian history. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient Egypt, Greek history, and the development of Western civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
