This book focuses on the development of Egypt in its formative phase, from ca. 5200 BC, when Egyptians first began farming wheat and barley, until 2160 BC, as Egypt’s central government weakened and appears to have fallen into disorder. During these millennia, which coincide with the Predynastic, Early Dynastic, and Old Kingdom periods, Egyptian civilization became increasingly complex, and many of its greatest pyramids and other monuments were built. Robert Wenke examines this cycle of ancient Egypt’s development by analyzing Egyptological, anthropological, and other forms of evidence, which are set into the larger context of early civilizations that developed in various areas of the world. Written in an accessible style, with many anecdotes, quotations, and personal reflections, this book is intended for use in undergraduate and graduate courses on early civilizations and states.

• Integrates evidence from Egyptology with that of anthropology, geology, archaeology, and other disciplines • Includes anecdotes, quotations and personal reflections, avoiding simply reciting evidence • Sets Egyptian civilization in the context of other early states, including a chapter devoted to the epistemological problems of analyses of early civilizations around the world

1. The significance and interpretation of Ancient Egyptian civilization; 2. Introduction to the Ancient Egyptians and their country; 3. Introduction to the evidence and interpretation of Egyptian antiquity; 4. The neolithic and early predynastic origins of pharaonic civilization; 5. Lords of the two lands - the origins of the first pharaonic states; 6. The pharaonic state in early maturity; 7. Egypt and general analyses of state origins.
