The Twilight of Ancient Egypt
Karol Mysliwiec surveys a turbulent time in Ancient Egyptian culture and history -- the eight hundred years between the eleventh century B.C.E. and the conquest of Egypt by Alexander the Great in 332 B.C.E., after which Egypt became part of the Hellenistic world.

The major part of Smoláriková's study examines the different types of Greek pottery and their distribution and context of use, placed alongside other archaeological and literary evidence. The situation at Abusir-Saqqara appears to stray from the norm, where Greek imports were directed at Greek residents in Egypt, with examples found in clearly defined Egyptian contexts.
