Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Mummies have gripped the popular imagination through highly publicized discoveries and macabre horror movies. But for the ancient Egyptians, mummification and a full set of magical "machinery" including a tomb, a sarcophagus, masks, amulets and canopic jars was essential to secure eternal life. T…his work comprises a survey of the entire panoply of Egyptian burial equipment over 3,000 years. Part 1 provides an overview of burial rites and tomb development, from the Giza pyramids to the Valley of the Kings and beyond. Great discoveries are documented, from Belzoni's early explorations to Tutankhamun's magnificent tomb and recent scientific detective-work using x-rays and CAT-scanners. Part 2 provides a detailed survey of changing burial practices during the pharonic era. The authors reveal the evolution of methods for treating the body. All important innovations are described, incorporating the latest research, some carried out by the authors themselves. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. THE DEFINITIVE VISUAL GUIDE TO ANCIENT EGYPTIAN MUMMIFICATION. Written by two of the foremost Egyptologists of their generation, Mummy in Ancient Egypt presents a comprehensive study of Egyptian funerary beliefs, mummification practices, burial customs, and the archaeological ev…idence that has shaped modern understanding of life after death along the Nile. Drawing upon the latest archaeological discoveries and museum collections, the authors examine every aspect of the ancient Egyptian mortuary tradition-from the practical techniques of embalming to royal tombs, coffins, canopic equipment, funerary texts, and the religious beliefs surrounding eternal life. Richly illustrated throughout, the volume combines authoritative scholarship with exceptional visual documentation. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Large quarto hardcover. Approximately 10.75 inches tall; 352 pages including a comprehensive bibliography and index. Profusely illustrated throughout with hundreds of photographs, drawings, maps, and reconstruction images, many in full color. CONDITION: Fine. No ownership marks or internal flaws noted. Housed in a Near Fine dust jacket showing only minimal shelf handling. An exceptionally attractive copy. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE: UNDERSTANDING ANCIENT EGYPT'S QUEST FOR ETERNAL LIFE - Mummification remains one of the defining achievements of ancient Egyptian civilization, reflecting more than three thousand years of evolving religious belief, medical knowledge, craftsmanship, and artistic expression. Rather than treating mummies as archaeological curiosities, Ikram and Dodson place them within the broader context of Egyptian society, demonstrating how burial practices illuminate concepts of kingship, theology, identity, and the afterlife. Long regarded as a standard reference, this volume synthesizes archaeological evidence, textual sources, and material culture into one of the most accessible and authoritative studies of Egyptian funerary traditions available to both scholars and collectors. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS +++ Authoritative Scholarship - Written by internationally recognized Egyptologists Salima Ikram and Aidan Dodson, combining decades of archaeological research. +++ Exceptional Illustration Program - Hundreds of photographs, artifacts, tomb paintings, coffins, funerary equipment, and excavation images, many reproduced in full color. +++ Comprehensive Coverage - Explores embalming techniques, royal and private burials, funerary rituals, tomb architecture, grave goods, religious texts, and the evolution of mummification over three millennia. +++ Museum & Archaeological Sources - Draws extensively upon major museum collections and archaeological excavations throughout Egypt. SUBJECTS: Ancient Egypt; Mummies; Mummification; Egyptology; Funerary Customs; Archaeology; Egyptian Religion; Burial Practices; Pharaohs; Tombs; Ancient Art, Egyptology; Ancient History; Archaeology; Art History; Religious History.
