KORTE INHOUD
AMAZINGLY RARE BOOK! The Egyptian Book of the Dead was one of the most important repositories of religious authority for some 3,000 years! It's now available to own in its entirety.

Reproduced in full are a clear copy of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, an interlinear transliteration of their sounds (as reconstructed), a word-for-word tr...
