Translated from the German by David Lorton. The ancient Egyptians held a rich and complex vision of the afterlife and codified their beliefs in books discovered over two millennia later in royal tombs. This text surveys what is known about them, looking closely at the Books of the Netherworld and summarizing the Book of the Dead.
