This mini episode is about The Book of the Dead, a collection of funerary texts from ancient Egypt. To better understand the collection as well as the culture and mythology behind these works, I looked a little bit at the page showing the judgment of Hunefer, a high-ranking scribe and priest.

This is an encore presentation of my previous episode on this work. I am posting daily mini episodes to cover all 64 artworks which will be up for listeners to vote on in my annual Arts Madness Tournament starting the week of March 1. This is also one of the required works for high school students around the US taking AP Art History.
