Liturgy of Funerary Offerings 1909

1909. This volume contains the Egyptian texts with English translations of two copies of one of the most important documents connected with the dead which have come down to us, namely, a detailed list of the offerings which were made to the dead, and also of the consecrating formulae which were recited by the chief officiating priest, as he presented them to a mummified body, or to a statue of the deceased. The original document deals exclusively with the presentation of offerings to the dead. Illustrated.
