The hieroglyphic of Amduat |
Amduat or Amtuat was a mortuary text depicted on the walls in the tomb of
Tuthmosis III (1479-1425 B.C.E.) in the
Valley of the kings in Thebes, the Amduat, Book of that which is in the Hell, shows the nightly journey of the
god Ra, a epitome of the sojourn required of the gone.

The time is 3, from tomb (KV34) |
The Amduat is divided into 12 segments, doing fields or caverns, and traces the pathway into the earth that parts at the gateway of the west horizon. The text contains numerous adventures and rags but ends in spiritual repurchase and the attainment of heaven.
