Explanation:

In order to have a better understanding of how historically accurate Evan´s previous about ancient Egypt readings were, developing research of historical accounts about that era is the best option.

Fiction novels and movies are a useful tool for a non-academic approach, but most of the time they take creative liberties that might differ from the actual historic process.

the narrator is a first person, participant one, who describes in the simple past tense important and difficult events in his earlier life. he also provides temporal markers as the month (january) and the time (12: 30 pm). finally the account of his experience is very detailed, to the extent that a participant narrator would talk the same way about his experiences. a good example of such detail is the mention of the “bovril ration” which historically was a native american food adopted by european explorers in arctic and antarctic regions due to its high level of calories.
