Although Herodot's dictum that "Egypt is a gift of the Nile" is proverbial, there has been only scant attention to the way the river impacted on ancient Egyptian society. Egyptologists frequently focus on the textual and iconographic record, whereas archaeologists and earth scientists approach the issue from the perspective of natural sciences. The contributions in this volume bridge this gap by analyzing the river both as a natural and as a cultural phenomenon. Adopting an approach of cultural ecology, it addresses issues like ancient land use, administration and taxation, irrigation, and religious concepts.

Les mille ans qui sont l'objet de ce volume voient, après la fin de l'Ancien Empire, l'ensemble de la vallée du Nil entrer dans l'histoire. L'Égypte devient une sorte d'Empire colonial. La jonction se fait entre le domaine égyptien et celui de la Syrie et des États mésopotamiens. La civilisation égyptienne atteint des sommets en littérature et dans les beaux-arts. C'est la période la plus créative de cette longue histoire, que l'intense activité égyptologique du dernier demi-siècle a permis de mieux connaître.
