• Sommario/riassunto: This volume reconstructs the history of documentary practice in pharaonic Egypt from the early Old Kingdom to the administrative changes imposed by the Graeco-Roman period. It explores how the writing of documents was embedded in the interactions between customary social practices and the penetration of outside hierarchies into local government.
