Gardner Wilkinson documents in extraordinary detail the habits, customs, art and methods of this seminal civilization. The arrangement of houses, games and amusements, music and instruments, armor, transportation, festivals, farming methods, laws and scientific knowledge are just some of the subjects covered in this remarkable two volume work published in 1854.»
