Old Kingdom (1 янв 2686 г. до нашей эры – 1 янв 2181 г. до нашей эры)
Описание:
In ancient Egyptian history, the Old Kingdom is the period spanning c. 2700-2200 BC. It is also known as the "Age of the Pyramids" or the "Age of the Pyramid Builders", as it encompasses the reigns of the great pyramid-builders of the Fourth Dynasty, such as King Sneferu, who perfected the art of pyramid-building, and the kings Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, who constructed the pyramids at Giza.[2] Egypt attained its first sustained peak of civilization during the Old Kingdom, the first of three so-called "Kingdom" periods (followed by the Middle Kingdom and New Kingdom), which mark the high points of civilization in the lower Nile Valley.Добавлено на ленту времени:
