  abstract: "This open access book discusses texts and images from the Egyptian Book of the Dead, as well as other prayers and spells, found in tombs at the necropolis of Saqqara dating back to the New Kingdom (c. 1550-1077 BCE). Drawing on an extensive corpus of data, it contributes striking new insights into the role of individual agency in ancient Egyptian funerary religion. The eBook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO): 276-30-016"--
