Visualizing the Afterlife in the Tombs of Graeco-Roman Egypt
Venit, Marjorie Susan (University of Maryland, College Park)
This book explores the visual narratives of a group of decorated tombs from Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt (c.300 BCE–250 CE). The author contextualizes the tombs within their social, political, and religious context and considers how the multicultural population of Graeco-Roman Egypt chose to negotiate death and the afterlife.
