This 1909 work by the father of modern Egyptology begins by tracing theories of consciousness and religion, and applying them to Egyptian documents dating back to 500 B.C. The author examines what the ancients believed about the world, the gods, and how to live. He covers their organizations, dwellings, and marriage customs as well.
