Re: Kemetic Resources

For those who want more translation practice and to get some idea about birthing rituals (ok, that part is debatable), here's a link to the Westcar Papyrus.

Re: Kemetic Resources

In my stroll across the internet I found a link to a bunch of Egyptian videos. This site is chocked full of info, but I was really drawn to this video. Robert Brier is very notable for his Egyptological research on mummies, so when I saw they had a video on the site I had to share:

Fresh off of Twitter the British Museum has uploaded the Ramesseum Papyri for everyone to see:

Caelia...this is more of a question than anything, but...

I found this on FB--is it reasonably legit historical? Or is it modern UPG of some sort?

It's a more "modernized" with some of the negative confessions outright inaccurate. Lemme see if I can find a link to better convey. I'm not liking the googlemancy results because it's Budge, but it's a starting point until I can find the Faulkner translation).

ADD: I should really look at the links more closely. Here you go.

Re: Kemetic Resources

Are there surviving songs or chants to kemetic deities? (dont have to be specific deities.)
poetry or prose? or good links for finding them myself?

Re: Kemetic Resources

There are quite a few floating around the net, we just have no idea how they were played. Some people have taken a jab at it, but it's basically a wild guess.

fair enough, diddnt think it would be more than that though, I'll look for a few and see what I can find, thanks though!

Re: Kemetic Resources

I recommend starting with Google books, actually. You'll get more outdated translations that way, but it will give you some ground to start. Maybe I should start a thread of YouTube videos of songs and hymns...
