About This Book

A richly illustrated reference presents mythological figures from ancient Egypt with color plates and explanatory text that identify names, typical poses, and symbolic attributes. Entries describe iconography, hieroglyphic legends, and variants of divine depiction, relate epithets to cult sites and temple imagery, and interpret inscriptions to clarify theological roles and ritual functions. The combined visual and scholarly material guides readers in reading monument iconography and understanding the organization of the Egyptian divine landscape.
