DECLINE AND SUNSET OF ANCIENT EGYPT: LAST NATIVE PHARAOHS AND FOREIGN CONQUESTS

 



The decline of Ancient Egypt had been so long and illustrious as it's history as whole. That is an era from more than thousand years, including Third Intermediate period (ca. 1069-664 BCE), Late Period (ca. 664-332 BCE), Hellenistic period (332-30 BCE) and epoch of Roman rule until the division of Roman empire as a birth of the Byzantine one (30 BCE-395 ACE). That is a chain of foreign conquerors: Libyans, Nubians, Assyrians, Persians, Greeks and Romans. But that is an era of struggle for national independence and lastt attempts to keep Egyptian authority in it's former empire in Levant. That is a deep transformation in which this ancient nation accepted to be ruled by foreigners, but overcomed them by it's high culture. The syncretic hellenism gave birth to the phaenomen of Alexandria. Some of the most impressive and well preserved temples and other monuments are built, and the demotic script and coptic alphabet are invented.
