"The modern title 'Book of the Dead' is misleading, because the texts are not about death but about life: specifically, eternal life as a spirit . . ." In terms of humanity this book's contents are from another planet, only surviving in found artifacts that have waited patiently through the ages. These artifacts include papyrus scrolls, sculptures, and wall paintings largely in tombs. The Egyptian word for "spells" in actuality means orations or chapters. No Black Magic involved. The book is heavy on color illustrations of said artifacts, all captioned with clear descriptions and interpretations. This book is in my inventory and the images are of this particular item. *** Color illustrated and decorated paper boards with "priceless" ruby stone mounted in scarab beetle brooch on front cover, also decorated end papers. Clean with almost no wear in solid binding. One small cosmetic flaw at bottom center of front cover. *** 9.5 inches tall by 11.5 inches.…
