Back into Nut’s Womb : The Evolution, Contextualisation and Significance of Burial Containers in Ancient Egypt from the Old Kingdom Onward
Original language description
Back into Nut's Womb provides a comprehensive study of Egyptian burial containers from the Old Kingdom to the early New Kingdom, examining stone sarcophagi, wooden, pottery, mud, and reed coffins. Using both new excavations and museum collections, it explores development, material relationships, decorative changes, and evolving funerary concepts. The book offers new typologies, detailed case studies of neglected coffin types, and situates Old Kingdom material within a broader diachronic perspective, contributing significantly to the understanding of early Egyptian funerary practices.
