Pyramid Texts

Pyramid Texts Overview


The earliest texts estimated date to between 2400 and 2300 BCE.

The oldest funerary manuscripts from ancient Egypt date to the late Old Kingdom and are known as the Pyramid manuscripts. They represent the first corpus of religious writings from the ancient Egyptians. From the end of the Fifth Dynasty through the Sixth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom and into the Eighth Dynasty of the First Intermediate Period, Old Egyptian texts were carved onto the underground walls and sarcophagi of the Saqqara pyramids.

The Pyramid Texts were only intended for the pharaoh and were not drawn, in contrast to the later Coffin Texts and Book of the Dead. Between the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms of Ancient Egypt, there were variations in the use and occurrence of Pyramid Texts.


Purpose of the Texts

The primary goal of the pyramid texts was the use of spells, or utterances to enable the transformation of the deceased into an Akh (a place where individuals deemed worthy might mix with the gods). Sacerdotal texts and Personal writings are the two main divisions of the spells found in the Pyramid Texts. The ritualistic element of the sacerdotal texts is carried out by the lector priest.


The texts were used for the king's soul by his scribes and priests, were a collection of spells and incantations meant to release the king's soul from the body and aid in its ascent to the skies. These texts—which are regarded as main sources on the kings' lives—have given Egyptologists knowledge of the king's function in the development of Egyptian civilization, as well as specifics on the ruler's achievements and personality. The inscriptions also mention mythical allusions, the names of the gods, and instructions for the dead on how to travel from their physical bodies to eternal life among "the imperishable stars" in the afterlife. The Pyramid Texts contain references to more over two hundred gods and goddesses, ranging from well-known ones like Ra, Thoth, Osiris, and Isis to less well-known ones. The purpose of these allusions, as with all of the inscriptions, was to aid the pharaoh's spirit in moving from this world to the afterlife (also known as the Field of Reeds), where he would live forever.


A person's existence in The Field of Reeds was a reflection of their life on earth, but without suffering from illness, disappointment, or, of course, death. A person who successfully navigated the judgment of Osiris and the Forty-Two Judges in the afterlife would live an immortal existence similar to the one they had on earth. In his battle to free himself from the old residence of his body and find his path to eternal delight, the monarch had the gods obviously on his side. They are invoked as his comrades in the struggle against the forces of chaos and evil (bad spirits or demons), as well as as his guides in the strange world that came after life on earth.
