Product Description
Synopsis
The Egyptians had very different outlooks on death and the afterlife to many other later societies, something that is reflected in the tombs that they constructed and decorated. Published in an abridged form in 1987 as The Tomb and its Significance in Ancient Egypt, this general study of Egyptian burial customs and belief systems is aimed at a non-specialist readership. Drawing on literary, architectural and artistic evidence Kanawati explores the relationships between the living and the dead. The strength of the book lies in its readability, its attention to detail and the numerous examples and illustrations that accompany the text.
