Description:

The Private Lives of the Pharaohs traces three major scientific investigations as they reconsider some of the oldest and most puzzling questions in Egyptology: who exactly built the Great Pyramid of Giza, how did they do it, and why? Why did the claustrophobic 18th Dynasty die out? Was it the result of incest and inherited disease? And who exactly was the boy-pharaoh Tutankhamen? DNA analysis and the re-examination of a nameless skeleton play their part in determining the sequence of events at the end of this turbulent era. The investigation allows us to draw remarkable conclusions concerning hidden aspects of life and health at the very end of the New Kingdom.
