Its accompanying hieroglyphic text has been translated by acclaimed Egyptologist E.A Wallis Budge, and includes spells addressed to ferryman, gods and kings to aid Ani on his way to the afterlife.

This silk-bound hardback contains magnificent illustrations from Persian manuscripts that complement the text and bring out its timeless beauty.

Product description

Book Description

The Egyptian Book of the Dead?is an ancient collection of spells designed to guide the departed through the perils of the underworld. This edition contains beautiful illustrations from the Papyrus of Ani along with the translated hieroglyphs.

About the Author

The version of Egyptian funerary scrolls used in this edition is that of the famous and well-preserved Papyrus of Ani, written around 1500BC. Ani was the Royal Scribe of Thebes, Overseer of the Granaries of the Lords of Abydos, and Scribe of the Offerings of the Lords of Thebes.

Sir Ernest Alfred Thompson Wallis Budge (1857-1934) was a renowned Egyptologist who worked at the British Museum in London and made significant contributions to the Museum's collections of cuneiform tablets and papyri as a result of his many trips to the Near East. He was a prolific author who contributed much to the study of hieroglyphics.

    The book comes a decorative sleeve box. The paper quality is excellent and there's images in the background of the print. Beautiful pictures throughout the book and in index and thesaurus for reference so it's easier to conceptualize what the Egyptians were trying to say and what they were referring to in their prayers.

    Got the book, and it's quite beautiful! I've been wanting to get my hands on the Egyptian Book of the Dead for over a decade, and I'm super happy to finally have it happened and included on my bookshelf. The only thing I'm utterly confused about is that it apparently comes with a casing... but... I didn't get it? Just the book. I'm not angry, especially as the book is in excellent condition, but I'm confused and kind of disappointed. Would have given this 5/5 stars if the casing came with it.
