Sex and Gender in Ancient Egypt: 'Don your wig for a joyful hour'

by C. Graves-Brown

This volume offers new research on an essential but often controversial aspect of life in Dynastic Egypt. Its originality lies in combining research which uses Egyptologys traditional strengths, philological and iconographic, with reflections on material culture and on the discipline of Egyptology itself. The authors are internationally-recognised authorities in their fields.
