Publisher's Synopsis

For the full description of this volume as well as the SPBDStudies Series, see SPBDStudies.com. This is the fifth volume of the series, covering spells BD 78 to 92, where BD 78 to 88 complete the class of spells for making transformations into different entities, such as a falcon, a lotus blossom, and a phoenix, to name some of the transformation types. The purpose of BD 89 is to unite the ba-soul of the body or mummy of the deceased in the tomb, BD 90 provides protection for the body/mummy from mutilation, and BD 91-92 enable the ba-soul of the deceased to go forth from the tomb. This series is primarily aimed at the Egyptological community, but the translations and illustrations may be of interest to the general reader with curiosity about the spells, what they represent, and what was of value to the ancient Egyptians. The methods and conventions used for all volumes of the series are outlined in Volume 1, so this volume is essential for understanding the methods and conventions used in Volume 5.
