The energy devoted by the ancient Egyptians to their tombs is legendary. The pyramids of Gizeh and the tomb of Tutankhamun are just two very spectacular examples. Using the tens of thousands of tombs excavated in Egypt, dating from 5000 BC to AD 200, this book builds up a picture of burial as practised across the millennia.
