摘要
This research discusses mining and its relation with the science of energy archaeology; as well as the role of the tools used in the metal industry; during the Greco-Roman era in Ancient Egypt. It reviews the millstones and mills used in this era; as well as the role of humans and animals in energy production and the importance of wood and coal in biological energy production, in order to demonstrate the importance of the archaeology of energy in interpreting many businesses and industries of this era.
