Jan Krzysztof Winnicki passed away in February 2009. This volume, translated by Dorota Dzierzbicka, represents the past twenty years of his research on the foreigners of Egypt.



Foreign ethnic groups have been present in the Nile Valley throughout the entire history of Egypt but information about them is scarce. Using the sources and evidence available, this volume seeks to determine the role, place and significance of foreigners in social and political structures of late Pharaonic and Ptolemaic Egypt. 645p
