  • The graphic art of ancient Egypt is very familiar to us, since it was so widely used. We find extraordinary graphic representations on sarcophagi, papyrus scrolls, the walls of tombs and other buildings. They are testimony to a lasting taste for "the art of the contour", and allow us to understand this ancient civilization like no other.
    The figure we know less about is the artist himself, the scribe. It was he who was the source of these representations; he who, with a simple stroke of a reed pen or paint brush, gave birth to the entire art of Egypt. Respecting precise codes, the scribe’s skills remained unchanged for more than three millennia. They sketched people, signs, plants, animals and geometric figures with a rare visual poetry, like a writer, a scientist, a sociologist or an artist.
    In this film, we will discover who these scribes really were, and their importance for the society of the Pharaohs. From Saqqara to the Valley of Kings and the abundant collections of European museums, the most beautiful works will be examined, along with the secrets behind their production.

    In Egypt, an agrarian country whose planting and harvesting period was seasonal, people had nothing to do during the flood season. This probably stimulated the development of an elaborate funerary culture, whose businesses (building and decorating tombs, making sarcophagi, producing and trading pigments used for painting and writing, etc...) kept the people working and obtaining the income necessary for buy food stored from the previous harvest.

    Thank you for educating us on our culture. Egyptians are amazing. They have always been.
    The man’s name is Heru-Ka-Ptah meaning Horus of the Spirit of Ptah. (Ka-Ptah) the spirit of Ptah is name of the Coptic people of Egypt. All Egyptians are Coptic, because they are all Ka-Ptah. The ancient Egyptians spoke Ka-Ptah (Coptic) in the original format before it being influenced by the Greeks. The Hieroglyphic font is Coptic. All Egyptians are GYPTS (Coptic) Spirit of Ptah. 🇪🇬

    We have a doughnut shop that sets out offerings every day. I think it is very charming.

    This is also interesting, though over lapping voices gives me head ache...unnecessary, don't even know what language. Not everyone's hearing works the same. Thank you.

    Every short may have important information. Even if it is just one clue. The over voices is the translations, save your headaches for sex not criticism.😊

    The English voiceover is almost drowned out by the person speaking French… had to quit watching too irritating. Too bad.

    I wonder how they explained the food offerings just sitting there rotting or was it someone's job to take it away to fool others into thinking that the deceased consumed it.

      The ka of the food being eaten by the deceased, most likely. The person left their body behind, so did the food

    The wrong kind of spirit is a spirit of ignorance built on the intrigue of the after life and it's false gods.
