well researched

The focus of spiritual life in Ancient Egypt turned around the experience of Death. As the preface notes, "[t]he Ancient Egyptians believed it was in the tomb that heaven and earth, and life and death converged most closely."

This book reveals all the secrets and traditions of the rituals of death for the Ancient Egyptians, from ceremonies to the role of priests, the imaginary of Osiris and Isis, Anubis and others. Through extensive research the author brings the reader into the tombs, into the private world of Ancient Egypt.

It is an extremely well researched and fascinating book for the interested in knowing more about social and religious practices in Ancient Egypt.
