"This book aims to define criteria for dating more precisely Book of the Dead papyri ascribed to the 18th Dynasty. On the basis of 85 actual textual sopurces, a great number of which are considered here for the first time, Munro examines a number of criteria, such as the tradtion of the vignettes, the textual tradition, stemmatic confirmity, the position of one of the main spells of the Book of the Dead, Spell 125, and the paleography of papyri written either in hieratic or cursive hieroglyphs. The dating of these icongraphic and stylistic elements is confirmed by transferring them from exactly dated Theban tombs to the Book of the Dead papyri. "
