Summary: In analysing the development of the Egyptian papacy from its origins to the rise of Islam, Davis examines evidence, as well as art, artifacts, and archaeological remains - to discover what the patriarchs did as leaders, how their leadership was represented in public discourses, and how those representations shaped the Egyptian Christian identity in late antiquity.
