Description
The Egyptian Book of the Dead: A Comprehensive Guide to Ancient Egyptian Funerary Rituals This influential book has been a cornerstone of Egyptian civilization for over three thousand years, serving as a repository of religious authority and a guide for the deceased in the afterlife. The Egyptian Book of the Dead is a detailed and complex text, containing ancient rituals and instructions for the behavior of the soul in the afterlife. In 1888, Dr. E.A. Wallis Budge discovered a perfectly preserved papyrus scroll, the Papyrus of Ani, which is presented here in full. The scroll, written around 1500 B.C. for Ani, Royal Scribe of Thebes, is accompanied by an original introduction, a clear copy of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, an interlinear transliteration of their sounds, a word-for-word translation, and a complete smooth translation. This edition also includes a brand-new foreword by Dr. Foy Scalf of Chicago University, providing a unique opportunity to explore the fascinating aspects of the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
