OLLI of Greater Birmingham presents Ancient Egypt: The Gift of the Nile with Helen Pruet, retired history instructor, Mountain Brook Junior High School.
Join us as we survey Ancient Egypt – the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms and her foreign conquerors, including Alexander the Great – up to the Roman Period. We will look at the most important pharaohs of each kingdom – their religion, economy, intellectual development, and of course their amazing engineering projects.
