Description
Summary:Papyrus Havana has long being known as the source –among others – of a rare version of the Book of the Dead spell 194, commonly addressed as ‘Anubis and the daemons’ after Heerma van Voss, but until very recent no complete edition of it had been made. A detailed study of the spell copy is presented for the first time, including its reconstruction, transcription, translation and interpretation. Also, a comparative analysis of spell sequences from other related witnesses that connect p. Havana with the Book of the Dead tradition from the Twenty-first Dynasty and the Theban area is presented, along with the spell’s iconographic, textual and historical relationship with other sources like the fishers and fowlers with the net (BD 153) and the Reinigungsszene .
