A. Rosalie David (Author)
Annotation This volume tells the story of Kahun, the first pyramid workmen's town to be discovered and excavated. It provided a unique opportunity to study the lives of Pharaoh's workforce.

An engrossing detective story, this study brings to the general reader a fascinating picture of a special community that built one of the great pyramids, some 4000 years ago
