Abstract

AbstractThis article surveys the place of non‐elites and popular culture in recent trends in social and cultural history, with particular reference to currents in Egyptology. Both archaeological and historiographical developments are reviewed and found to be largely complementary. The aim is to establish a framework within which to study non‐elites in Egyptian history, and this article concludes with a brief discussion of the New Kingdom village of Deir el‐Medina, one of the most fruitful Egyptian sites for the study of popular culture.
