Using this work as his primary source  Dieter Arnold has reconstructed and redrawn all of the lost buildings of the Late Period--some in computer assisted images--and redrawn all other available plans. These  along with superb photographs of extant temples dating to Ptolemaic and Roman times  are included in this book on the formal and stylistic development of Egyptian temple architecture.  Set against the background of the fascinating struggle of Egyptian culture with Assyrian  Greek  Persian  and Roman instrusion  the study places special emphasis on the survival of Egyptian building elements in Roman and Medieval European architecture. The book includes descriptions of building volume  stylistic evaluations  and foreign connections of the monuments as well as a detailed account of all known building activities from the end of the New Kingdom (c 716 BC) to the end of the Roman period.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44920516182069,"sku":"ByrdShop_0195126335","price":88.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780195126334.jpg?v=1784701563","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/temples-of-the-last-pharaohs-9780195126334","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
