Synopsis

Horus In The Pyramid Texts is a book written by Thomas George Allen that explores the ancient Egyptian Pyramid Texts and their connection to the god Horus. The Pyramid Texts are a collection of spells and incantations that were inscribed on the walls of pyramids during the Old Kingdom period (2686-2181 BCE). The book delves into the mythology and symbolism surrounding Horus, one of the most important deities in the Egyptian pantheon. Horus was often depicted as a falcon-headed god and was associated with the pharaohs, who were believed to be his earthly representatives. Through a close analysis of the Pyramid Texts, Allen examines the various roles that Horus played in Egyptian religion and how his cult evolved over time. He also explores the connections between Horus and other deities, such as Osiris and Set, and how these relationships were reflected in the Pyramid Texts. Overall, Horus In The Pyramid Texts provides a comprehensive and insightful look into the ancient Egyptian religion and the role that Horus played in it. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Egyptology, mythology, or ancient religions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
