This "Lesson in Civilization" is situated at the junction of the two richest legacies that Antiquity has bequeathed to us: the Egyptian heritage and the Greek heritage. The fascination that Egypt exerted on Greece, the adaptation of the Greeks to Egyptian realities, the emergence of a world of mixed race and of an ecumenical Hellenism, that is to say, on the dimensions of the inhabited earth.
