| Publisher Description: In this book the author examines corvee labour in Old and Middle Kingdom Egypt. Titles, institutions and words used for different categories of the working population are analyzed in context. In the Old Kingdom, the Egyptian king had divine status; for this period there are no signs that people were forced to work. For the Middle Kingdom, harsh punishments for people fleeing state labour are attested, indicating a change in the Egyptian state. German text |
