Handbooks to the Afterlife: Funerary Texts of Ancient Egypt

Welcome back to another episode of the Dirt Diaries podcast! Dr. K is back and is talking about the ancient handbooks for the recently deceased in ancient Egypt. Did you know the Book of the Dead wasn't the only funerary text? That's right; she's covering the three used for over two thousand years. What are these texts? How did they help? Was the journey to the afterlife scary?
