Synopsis Horrible Jobs in Ancient Egypt by : Robyn Hardyman
What could be worse than embalming a dead body? Being buried with it! Some pharaohs and wealthy Egyptians insisted their servants be buried with them to serve in the afterlife. Other jobs of the time were less deadly, but smellier! Readers learn a lot about ancient Egyptian society as they’re introduced to the unsavory tasks of slaves, peasants, and others. Full-color images showcase archeological evidence of these gross jobs, and interesting sidebars and fact boxes add even more stinky detail. Candid examples—including the removal of a person’s guts during mummification—will stay with readers long after they’ve finished reading.

Synopsis The Best (& Worst) Jobs in Ancient Egypt by : Clive Gifford
What sort of work could job-hunters in Ancient Egypt expect to find? What might their colleagues be like? Ancient Egyptians might become law officers, using sniffer dogs to track down criminals, or professional mourners, paid to throw dust over themselves at funerals. What were the pay and conditions like for a farmer or a scribe in Ancient Egypt? Which were the most dangerous jobs and which the most high status? Throughout the book, job adverts give an idea of the qualities and skills needed for each role and there's a verdict at the end to evaluate whether it was one of the best or worst jobs available. Photographs of artefacts from the period are married with humorous artwork to bring the workers of the era to life.
