Death on the Nile deepens our understanding of the lives and
concerns of ancient Egyptians as they prepared themselves for death
and burial. Building on the growing trend in Egyptology to use
scientific analysis and imaging to examine artefacts, this new
volume focuses on one hundred objects from the Fitzwilliam Museum's
renowned Egyptian collection. In addition to shedding new light on
the workshops of ancient Egypt, Death on the Nile traces the
religious beliefs, economic concerns and political allegiance of
the people for whom the coffins were created. Behind these
remarkable objects is a human story of daily concerns, aspirations
and practical realities.
