Very Minor shelfwear to DJ.; The 25, 000 perfectly preserved papyri unearthed from the dry sands of Egypt in the past 100 years yield insights into the life of ancient Egypt that are unequalled for any other ancient civilization.

To provide a context for reading Life in Egypt Under Roman Rule, Lewis includes a brief history of Roman-Egyptian relations before occupation as well as notes on the spelling of names and Roman imperial titles.

"In the past hundred years the dry sands of Egypt have presented the world of classical scholarship with tens of thousands of original documents written on papyrus, the bulk of them dating from the first centuries of the Christian era, when Egypt was a province of the Roman empire. These ancient papers illuminate public and private life in intimate detail. The focus of this book is on the people who lived under Roman rule. What were their everyday lives like? The book offers answers to that question in chapters that survey the rigidly maintained class stucture, life and the means of livelihood in the towns and villages, religion, taxation, and the manifestations - mostly verbal but sometimes violent - of popular discontent."
