Egypt of the Saite Pharaohs, 664-525 Bc, Paperback/Roger Forshaw

The Saite Dynasty (664-525 BC) represents a dynamic but lesser-known era in the history of ancient Egypt. In less than a decade Psamtek I reunified the country after almost 400 years of fragmentation. The Saite rulers promoted trade and embarked on important reforms, allowing Egypt to regain a major role in the Mediterranean world. -- . Illustrations: 5 Maps
