Maspero is an academic exploration written in the late 19th century that delves into the study of ancient Egyptian architecture, focusing particularly on civil and military structures. The book aims to shed light on the often-overlooked remnants of private homes and fortifications alongside the more celebrated temples and tombs in Egypt, thereby broadening our understanding of ancient Egyptian life and society. The opening of the book presents a comprehensive examination of Egyptian civil and military architecture, outlining how archaeologists have historically concentrated on temples and tombs, while neglecting the domestic and military constructions. Maspero discusses the materials used in building houses, the variations in construction techniques, and the significance of fortifications in ancient Egyptian cities. He emphasizes how the unique geological conditions of Egypt influenced architectural styles and construction methods, describing the processes of building houses from clay and bricks, as well as the strategies employed in fortification constructions to protect against invasions. This detailed analysis aims to provide readers with a foundational understanding of the physical remnants of ancient Egyptian civilization, offering insights into its domestic life and military preparations.
