Why were the pyramids built?
Were the tomb diggers of the pharaohs killed?
Why was Osiris green - was he rotten?
The mysteries of ancient Egypt have fascinated mankind for millennia. In this book, Egyptologist Mia Meri dives into the great mysteries of the time of the pharaohs and breaks down misconceptions about life and death in the eternal kingdom of the Nile. At the same time, it becomes clear what the god of death Osiris has in common with Frankenstein's monster and why the ancient Egyptians mummified fish.
The work is illustrated with the same objects that are on display in Amos Rex's Egypt's splendor exhibition in the fall of 2020.
Welcome to an enigmatic journey to the Egypt of the pharaohs.
