The author, a world expert on Egyptian mummification, addresses the
most frequently asked questions about Egyptian mummies: how and why
they were made, the religious beliefs which underpinned mummification,
the preservation of animals, and how the mummies have been treated from
ancient times until the present day. He provides an up to date summary
of the ancient evidence, and also considers modern attitudes to
Egyptian mummies, emphasising their role as a major source of knowledge
and understanding about past societies. The text and illustrations draw
heavily on the rich collection of mummies and funerary objects in the
British Museum, and the findings of a wide range of recent scientific
investigations of this collection. The book will therefore reflect the
important advances which have been made in the understanding of
Egyptian mummies over the last few years.
