註釋

Not everyone is aware of the fact but the ancient Egyptians did possess a sense of humour. Patrick Houlihan's interesting and well illustrated study looks for examples of Egyptian wit and humour in their literature and art to determine what it was that made ancient Egyptians smile. These include instances of verbal humour, comical temple decorations and depictions of animals, caricatures or humorous sexual situations on papyri and ostraca.
