This work focuses on the study of Egyptian
corn-mummies. The aim is to record and analyse this
class
of objects in terms of form, decoration,
representational theme, archaeological and cultural
context, chronology and use.
Corn-mummies are mummiform objects, 35 50 cm long,
made from a mixture of earth and grain, wrapped in
resin-soaked linen bandages and often provided with
Osirian wax mask and four small packages interpreted
as the Sons of Horus.
A catalogue, comprising 96 specimens, is provided as
basis for their interpretation in the light of
literary, pictorial and archaeological related
evidence, associated religious beliefs and symbolic
concepts.
This book constitutes a valid contribution to the
study of ancient Egyptian religious practice and a
very useful resource both for scholars interested in
traditions surroundings the god Osiris and for
museum curators and others who wish to situate
particular corn-mummies within a broader temporal
and symbolic context.
