Egypt has created the greatest and most enduring of all ancient civilisations. Its remarkable achievements in the arts and sciences, its influence upon the philosophy of both Europe and Asia, is seldom denied. Few studies, however, admit the significant, indeed predominant, role of Africans in the building of this civilisation. Migrants and invaders from the north and east, who made very little real impact upon the classical culture of the Egyptian until late in the day, are given all the credit for this most illustrious chapter in the history of civilisation.
