Here then are the daily events-the routines and rhythms, the successes and the excesses, even what must surely be the first recorded strike as ancient artists put aside their brushes to protest a reduction in their food allowance. Builders of monumentsw to the ineffable, these people and their earthly lives become here as real to us as the works they left behind.
