"History of Egypt, Chaldea, Syria, Babylonia, and Assyria in the Light of Recent Discovery" by L. W. King and H. R. Hall is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The volume explores the ancient civilizations of Egypt and surrounding regions, detailing significant archaeological discoveries made shortly before its publication. The book aims to update and complement prior works on these ancient cultures by providing insights from recent excavations and research. The opening of this historical work discusses the evolution of our understanding of prehistoric Egypt and Mesopotamia, specifically mentioning how previously believed timelines of civilization have been transformed by recent discoveries. The authors note the previous assumption that Egyptian history began solely with the Pyramid-builders, and they highlight how archaeological findings have revealed a rich prehistoric culture that predates these monumental periods. By providing insights into the artifacts and burial practices of early Egyptians, the text sets the stage for a deeper exploration of how such discoveries illuminate the broader histories of these interconnected ancient civilizations.
