  • Funerary Sacrifice of Animals in the Egyptian Predynastic Period
    Diane Victoria Flores

Such a cultic interpretation only rarely is offered for the other category of burial, that of animals interred in or, in its later developed form, directly assoc...

This is therefore as the ...

It is an aim of this work to redress the balance by examining sheaths ...
