From Berlin to Boston, and St Petersburg to Sydney, ancient Egyptian art fills the galleries of some of the world's greatest museums, while the architecture of Egyptian temples and pyramids has attracted tourists to Egypt for centuries. But what did Egyptian art and architecture mean to the people who first made and used it - and why has it had such an enduring appeal?

In this Very Short Introduction, Christina Riggs explores the visual arts produced in Egypt over a span of some 4,000 years. The stories behind these objects and buildings have much to tell us about how people in ancient Egypt lived their lives in relation to each other, the natural environment, and the world of the gods. Demonstrating how ancient Egypt has fascinated Western audiences over the centuries with its impressive pyramids, eerie mummies, and distinctive visual style, Riggs considers the relationship between ancient Egypt and the modern world.

I love this case and keyboard. It is light weight and best of all it has the swivel stand so the iPad can be used vertical or horizontally. I also love the fact that I can change the colors of the key pad. It has backlight for night typing as well. The magnetic keyboard stays on even if I pick the iPad up to move it quickly so the magnetic hold is good. I feel it is of good quality and should be easy to clean. It was easy to set up to BlueTooth which helped me out. I ordered a pink case so it matches my pink iPad. I believe it is worth the money as it is easier to type on a keyboard. I. Love the fact that I can turn the iPad horizontally and close the case all within a matter of a couple of seconds. The keyboard fits nicely over the iPad itself. The magnetic closure on the case is strong. There are two slots for the iPad to sit in. They are not deep but they work fine and I have never had the iPad fall out of them. The entire case as well as the keyboard appears to be sturdy and well made.

totally worth the money
Size: For iPad 11th A16 11 inch /10th Generation 10.9", Color: Watermelon Red
I really like this! totally worth the money. It’s good quality, and stays charged for a long time. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because I thought I would be more portable friendly. you have to disconnect the keyboard (magnetic) when moving to a different spot or you’ll make the mistake that I did and it’ll fall to the floor 10 mins after opening it. other than that, I really like it. I absolutely love the different color settings on the keyboard, it’s good a bright, and the mouse setting is just the cherry on top of it all.
