Résumé
Eternity in Stone: Egypt's Pyramid Age transports readers into the crucible of Egypt's first golden age, when mudbrick tombs gave way to mountains of stone, and the kings of Dynasties III to VI inscribed their power across the desert horizon. From the sacred necropolis of Abydos to the dazzling innovations at Saqqara, from Memphis's administrative might to Heliopolis's solar theology, this book follows the evolution of Egypt from fragile chiefdoms to the world's first centralized empire.
At the center stand Pharaoh Djoser and his visionary architect Imhotep, whose Step Pyramid redefined kingship and architecture alike. The narrative traces the rise of specialized labor, the ideology of divine kingship, the organization of colossal workforces, and the religious imagination that saw pyramids not as tombs, but as cosmic stairways linking earth to heaven. Drawing on archaeology, inscriptions, and cultural history, Eternity in Stone reveals how Egypt's rulers became gods of stone, and how their monuments continue to echo across millennia.
This is not just the story of pyramids - it is the story of a civilization inventing eternity.
