Pyramid Texts: Ancient Egyptian Philosophical Reflections

The Pyramid Texts, dating back to at least the 24th century BC, are among the oldest religious texts in the world. While initially thought to be spells, some scholars argue they contain early philosophical reflections on life, death, and the interconnectedness of all things. Despite the difficulty in interpreting them, these texts offer insights into ancient Egyptian cosmological beliefs and the nature of existence, potentially preceding later philosophical thoughts.
