The essays consider a range of material evidence, including archaeological finds, artworks, papyri, and inscriptions, to shed light on cultural interactions between Egypt, Greece, and Rome from the Bronze Age through to the end of the Ptolemaic dynasty and Egypt's inclusion in the Roman Empire. Including an investigation of the military's role in the Bronze Age Aegean, and a study of hieroglyphic Egyptian inscriptions found on Roman obelisks.‎
