Das Totenbuch pBerlin P. 10477 aus Achmim (mit Photographien des verwandten pHildesheim 5248). By BARBARA LUSCHER, with contributions from Ursula Rossler-Kohler and Maria-Theresia Derchain-Urtel. Handschriften des Altagyptischen Totenbuchs, vol. 6. Wiesbaden: HARRASSOWITZ VERLAG, 2000. Pp. xiv + 50, plates. This sixth publication from the Book of the Dead Project at the University of Cologne is a welcome edition to scholars of the Late Period (LP) traditions from the Book of the Dead (BD) in Egypt. In particular, it not only provides reproductions of two of the six papyri currently known to have been produced at Akhmim during the Late Period, but also includes a thorough description of the contents of these two documents. In the discussions concerning content, the author demonstrates an exceptionally keen eye for detail, and she provides several valuable tables to accompany these discussions.
