by E. A. Budge; Wallace Budge; Wallis Budge
Summary
The Book of the Dead is the title now commonly given to the great collection of funerary texts which the ancient Egyptian scribes composed for the benefit of the dead. These consist of spells and incantations, hymns and litanies, magical formulae and names, words of power and prayers, and they are found cut or painted on walls of pyramids and tombs, and painted on coffins and sarcophagi and rolls of papyri. This book is the treatise and analysis of The Book of the Dead, (also known as Spells of Coming and Forth by Day), by Egyptologist E. A. Wallis Budge

The Heliopolitan Recension, i.e., that which was edited by the priests of the College of Anu (the On of the Bible, and the Heliopolis of the Greeks), and which was based upon a series of texts now lost.
