Second tale in a series about life in Predynastic Egypt, following Daughter of the Falcon God.
Set between 4009 and 3997 BC, The Potter occurs during an era in which the Nile Valley’s Naqadian culture begins to replace the older Badarian. The story of the potter Tiaa and the trader Ankhmare ranges in location from mysterious Nabta Playa in the Western Desert to Merimda in the delta, from Badari in the middle Nile Valley to Nekhen, the mightiest settlement along the river, in the South. Tiaa and Ankhmare walk a path which leads, millennia later, to the greatest and longest lasting civilization in the ancient world.
