Abydos is one of the most important archaeological sites in Egypt, the burial place of the first kings of Egypt, and a cult center of Osiris, god of the underworld and judge of the dead. Past archaeological finds in Abydos include the oldest surviving boats in the world, the earliest indications of writing in Egypt, and a number of temples and tombs, many of which predate the first pyramids at Saqqara. “O’Connor presents the rich fruits of his long labors in this volume
certain to appeal to scholars and Egyptophiles alike.”—KMTThe ancient
site of Abydos lies between the towering cliffs of the Egyptian high
desert and the lush green floodplain of the Nile. As both the burial
place of the first kings of Egypt and a cult center for Osiris, god
of the dead, this sacred area has long tantalized archaeologists with
incredible finds. With over forty years’ experience of excavation
and research at Abydos, David O’Connor is in an unrivaled position to
provide the most authoritative and up-to-date account of this unique
Egyptian site. Here, for the first time, Professor O’Connor not only
explains the complex history of Abydos but also vividly evokes the
power that the sacred landscape held for contemporary Egyptians. This
beautifully illustrated book will be of interest to anyone who has
ever wondered about the origins of one of the greatest civilizations
in world history. 15 color, 125 b&w illustrations
