  • The ancient Egyptians were very open towards sex and it featured heavily in religion, mythology, and artwork. In an ancient culture that has become increasingly sexualised in its modern-day representation, Charlotte Booth demystifies the myth surrounding Egyptian sex. She draws on archaeological evidence and the written record to build up a picture of sex in the time of the pharaohs.
