Ancient Egyptian Religion

Meer over het boek

The multiple gods & goddesses, the temple rituals, the burial practices & the religious rules of Ancient Egypt seem very mysterious. The author places these mysteries in the context of Ancient Egyptian life. He explains them as a response to normal human needs & fears. Divided in 5 chapters, this book talks about all the gods--both the lesser known & the important ones--& their influence in the Ancient Near East & Greece. Well illustrated in black & white, this proves to be quite useful for travelers & students of Egyptology.--Francesca Jourdan (edited)
