Ancient Egyptian Tombs: The Culture of Life and Death - eBook

"This work is a rather ambitious attempt to summarize not onlythe development of the burial place in ancient Egypt and itsarchitecture, but also the complex religious significance of thetomb, the attendant rituals and ritual objects as well as funerarytexts. Admittedly, there is a great deal to be said about each ofthese aspects of the burial rite in ancient Egypt and the authorhas essayed a survey that includes a good deal of significantinformation as well as observation."
