| Abstract | ||
| The research focuses on some traits that reflect the core of the social life in ancient Egypt. The chosen sample was the New kingdom community of Deir el-Madina. It is taken as an example as it is considered a comprehensive community, which provides us with various source evidences that explain the relations between the villagers and their behaviours. This study discussed different traits, and qualities, and a mix between good and bad manners. These traits were clear in texts concerning villager’s problems in Deir el-Madina. The main aim is to illustrate the complete picture of the community way of thinking and the social life in ancient Egypt. The manners which are discussed here are: fear, jealousy, hatred, greediness, laziness, disobedience and rebelliousness of these villagers. These manners were discussed through sources found on both papyri and ostraca from Deir el-Madina. | ||
