The Cat In Ancient Egypt
Cats in Egypt were probably domesticated by around 4,000 BC, from wild ancestors. Over the following centuries, they became popular household pets; they are regularly shown in tomb paintings of family life. This title draws on a range of artistic and written sources to show how they became widely-esteemed and revered animals in Egypt.
