Analyse van de resultaten van de opgravingen in Amarna, het Achetaten van Echnaton. Kemps interpretatie van de materiële sporen is immer boeiend. Hij werpt licht op uiteenlopende en complexe thema's als de omvang en de impact van Echnatons religieuze revolutie, het economische en sociale leven, ... De stad blijkt een dorp te zijn. Of misschien beter: dorpen blijken een stad te vormen. Het dorpse karakter van deze hoofdstad van een wereldrijk, is misschien wel de meest opmerkelijke vaststelling. En de termieten, het weinig duurzame bezetsel in de huizen en het laag-bij-de-grondse leven (letterlijk dan), maken het dagelijks leven tastbaar. Het wereldrijk blijkt een reus op lemen voeten.

The ancient site of Tell el-Amarna in Middle Egypt was the capital city of the heretic pharaoh Akhenaten and his chief consort, Nefertiti. Occupied for just sixteen or so years in the fourteenth century BC, the city lay largely abandoned and forgotten until excavations over the last hundred years brought it back into prominence. Based on more than three decades of research and excavation by Barry Kemp, this account provides new insight into Amarna and its people.The author brings to life the royal family and their offspring, including Tutankhamun, as well as prominent citizens such as the high priest Panehsy, the vizier Nakht, the general Ramose, and the sculptor Thutmose.
