Digging Ancient Graves 3,500 Years Old, Archaeologists Discover Many Mantra Scrolls, Surprisingly Revealing Contents

Roll with a length of 13-14.9 Meters

After research, it turns out that the mantra is used to guide the souls of the deceased in their afterlife. The Death Book contains this mantra and was found in the ancient tomb of Tuna al-Gebel in Central Egypt. The mantra in the form of a scroll is estimated to be approximately 13-14.9 meters long.

"Berlaku Seperti Asuransi" translates to "Applies Like Insurance" in English.

Sara Cole, assistant curator of the Antiquities Department at the J. Paul Getty Museum, referred to the mantra as a "travel insurance" for those who have passed away.

Therefore, rolls containing such spells became an integral part of the burial process in ancient Egypt. Those rolls are not the only treasures found at the site.

"Mummy of a High-ranking Official of Ancient New Kingdom Egypt"

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The archaeologists also discovered mummies believed to belong to high-ranking officials of the New Kingdom, who ruled from 1550 to 1070 BC. Some of these mummies are still inside well-preserved stone sarcophagi with elaborate ornaments. One of these stone sarcophagi contains the mummy of Ta-de-Isa, the daughter of a high priest, as reported by Science Alert."

The discovery also revealed rare Canopic jars made of alabaster. These jars were used to store organs that were considered sacred during mummification. Not only that, archaeologists also found 'thousands' of amulets in the ancient tomb.

"The Rare Mantra Scroll"

Finding the Book of the Dead is not uncommon in the excavation of ancient tombs in Egypt. However, finding it still inside the tomb where it was buried is rare, said Foy Scalf, an Egyptologist from the University of Chicago. Unfortunately, not much information has been released about the scroll. Additionally, it is difficult to determine the importance of the scroll without further research.

According to Ancient Egyptian beliefs, the journey to the afterlife is very difficult. Therefore, scroll of spells are included in the funeral as a guide for the spirits to find their way.

Creating this mantra scroll is quite expensive because it requires writing a special 'rajah' in the scroll in order for it to function. Therefore, some are made based on existing examples so that the name of the deceased person can be added in the empty line.

However, for wealthy individuals, they can choose the mantras they want to include. Such as the Book of Death on this Tuna al-Gebel site.
