This deluxe gift edition with gilded page-edges presents The Egyptian Book of the Dead,  an ancient collection of spells, prayers and incantations designed to  guide the departed through the perils of the underworld. Written as part  of funeral rites to ensure eternal life, these scrolls were often left  in the sarcophagus of the deceased and now offer fascinating insight  into Egyptian culture.  

This beautifully illustrated edition contains images from the exquisite Papyrus of Ani, an ancient Egyptian scroll narrating the journey of Theban scribe Ani through the underworld. 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.

ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Ornate Classics are  beautifully bound editions of iconic literary works across history.  These compact, foil-embossed hardbacks are printed using deluxe ivory  paper and make the perfect gift.
