The Apis Embalming Ritual
This book is the first complete edition of a hieratic-demotic papyrus preserved to this day in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. The papyrus dates back to the middle of the second century B.C. and contains a minute discription of a considerable part of the embalming and burial rites of the Apis, the sacred bull of the Egyptians. The Vienna papyrus is the only authentic document to give a coherent picture of the course of events during the embalming of the holy animal, adding substantially to what we know already from the Serapeum stelae and the classical writers. The book comprises a general introduction, a translation with commentary, an annotated transcription, a glossary, several indexes and photos of the text.
Anatomy and Embalming
"Terrific... and an oddly enjoyable read." I am very surprised this book doesn't have a review yet, and I'm honored to be the first. I'm a layman when it comes to this stuff; I am educated, but by no means am I a mortician, doctor, or scientist. I bought this book only for research for a novel, but I'm amazed at how easy to read, how interesting, but, and most importantly, how objectively based it is. It's rare (if not impossible) to find a scientific text that is enjoyable to read while remaining completely grounded in the facts. This is a super fun book to read, and it'll fill your brain with odd tidbits of information that you'll be able to bring up at dinner parties for a lifetime. - A R...
