The Egyptian Book of the Dead

For millennia, the culture of the ancient Egyptians has fasci­nated historians and spiritual seekers. This 20th anniversary edition includes all-new material analysing the progress in modern Egyptology. Written some 3,500 years ago, the Papyrus of Ani is the best-preserved example of Egyptian thought. Including full-colour hieroglyphic images paired with an acclaimed translation and two gatefold spreads that showcase the papyrus's elaborately bordered images, this sumptuous edition brings to life one of humanity's finest spiritual treasures.
Raymond Faulkner (1894-1982) was a renowned British Egyptologist, the translator of many key Egyptological texts.
