| Publisher Description: What clothes did ordinary people wear during the New Kingdom? Evidence for this occurs mainly in the papyri and ostraca from Deir el-Medina, the village of the workmen who built the royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings. It is, however, still a problem what exactly each of the words for garments means. This book attempts to provide some solutions. |
