The course aims to study water and its importance in the Egyptian civilisation. Many aspects will be examined: from the essential role of the Nile to the water used in the daily life without forgetting its primordial role in the religion.

The course provides the students with a detailed knowledge of one aspect of the culture of ancient Egypt, with a focus on archaeology, built environment, material culture and art.
The aims of the course are to:
- provide students with the opportunity to study at an advanced level a substantive subject in the field of Egyptology.
- prepare students for research in the archaeology and culture of ancient Egypt.
- to give students training in a range of general skills, such as writing, presentation and data analysis.
