Interconnections in Greco-Roman Egypt

For centuries, the ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman worlds collided, intermingled, and engaged. The papers collected in this thematic special issue address some aspects of the wide range of interactions that rook place during Egypt's ca. 300-year-long Ptolemaic period and its subsequent annexation by Rome. Distinctly Egyptian but clearly influenced by Greek and Roman mores, the era of the Greek pharaohs and their Imperial Roman successors were just as remarkable as that of the pharaohs of old.
