The Pyramid Texts are the oldest body of extant literature from ancient
Egypt. First carved on the walls of the burial chambers in the pyramids
of kings and queens of the Old
Kingdom, they provide the earliest comprehensive view of the way in
which the ancient Egyptians understood the structure of the universe,
the role of the gods, and the fate of human beings after death. Their
importance lies in their antiquity and in their endurance throughout the entire intellectual history of ancient Egypt. This volume contains the complete
translation of the Pyramid Texts, including new texts recently
discovered and published. It incorporates full restorations and readings
indicated by post–Old Kingdom copies of the texts and is the first
translation that presents the texts in the order in which they were
meant to be read in each of the original sources.
