“The spells, or utterances, of the Pyramid Texts were primarily concerned with enabling the transformation of the deceased into an Akh (where those judged worthy could mix with the gods).[23] The spells of the Pyramid Texts are divided into two broad categories: Sacerdotal texts and Personal texts”.

>> Makes me wonder how many of these spells for the Akh are used nowadays by the bloodlines?

“The sacerdotal texts are ritual in nature, and were conducted by the lector priest addressing the deceased in the second person.[25] They consist of offering spells,[26] short spells recited in the presentation of an offering,[27] and recitations which are predominantly instructional.[28] These texts appear in the Offering and Insignia Rituals, the Resurrection Ritual, and in the four pyramids containing the Morning Ritual.[25][29] The writing in these texts indicates that they originated around the time of the Second and Third Dynasties.

The remaining texts are personal, and are broadly concerned with guiding the spirit out of the tomb, and into new life.[27] They consist of provisioning, transition, and apotropaic – or protective[29] – texts.[30] The provisioning texts deal with the deceased taking command of his own food-supply, and demanding nourishment from the gods.[31] One example of these texts is the king's response in Unas' pyramid.[31][32] The transition texts – otherwise known as the Sakhu or Glorifications[29] – are predominantly about the transformation of the deceased into an Akh,[29] and their ascent, mirroring the motion of the gods, into the sky.[33] These texts form the largest part of the corpus, and are dominated by the youngest texts composed in the Fifth and possibly Sixth Dynasties.[29] Apotropaic texts consist of short protective spells for warding off threats to the body and tomb.[34][35][29] Due to the archaic style of writing these texts are considered to be the oldest,[29] and are the most difficult to interpret”.

>> It’s very interesting how the part about “the gods going into the sky” is identical to how the gods ran away from the deluge, going into the heaven in the Epic of Gilgamesh.

“These utterances were meant to be chanted by those who were reciting them. They contained many verbs such as "fly" and "leap" depicting the actions taken by the Pharaohs to get to the afterlife.[36] The spells delineate all of the ways the pharaoh could travel, including the use of ramps, stairs, ladders, and most importantly flying. The spells could also be used to call the gods to help, even threatening them if they did not comply”.

>> “Flying”! Very interesting.

“The various pyramid texts often contained writings of rituals and offerings to the gods. Examples of these rituals are the Opening of the mouth ceremony, offering rituals, and insignia ritual. Both monetary and prayer based offerings were made in the pyramids and were written in the pyramid texts in hopes of getting the pharaoh to a desirable afterlife.[63] Rituals such as the opening of the mouth and eye ceremony were very important for the Pharaoh in the afterlife. This ceremony involved the Kher-Heb (the chief lector priest) along with assistants opening the eyes and mouth of the dead while reciting prayers and spells. Mourners were encouraged to cry out as special instruments were used to cut holes in the mouth. After the ceremony was complete, it was believed that the dead could now eat, speak, breathe and see in the afterlife”.

>> This is quite interesting, isn’t it anons? Holes in the mouth? Hm! It brings back some memories from a certain convention that took place in 2016. We all thought it was for medical reasons back then. How crazy can things be with (((them)))?! I’m not saying it is or it isn’t. I’m just saying (((these))) people are sick.

There are details about the layout of the pyramids and the texts; if anons are interested in reading them for more knowledge.

“Cannibal Hymn

Utterances 273 and 274 are sometimes known as the "Cannibal Hymn", because it describes the king hunting and eating parts of the gods:[6] They represent a discrete episode (Utterances 273-274) in the anthology of ritual texts that make up the Pyramid Texts of the Old Kingdom period.

Appearing first in the Pyramid of Unas at the end of the Fifth Dynasty, the Cannibal Hymn preserves an early royal butchery ritual in which the deceased king—assisted by the god Shezmu—slaughters, cooks and eats the gods as sacrificial bulls, thereby incorporating in himself their divine powers in order that he might negotiate his passage into the Afterlife and guarantee his transformation as a celestial divinity ruling in the heavens.

The style and format of the Cannibal Hymn are characteristic of the oral-recitational poetry of pharaonic Egypt, marked by allusive metaphor and the exploitation of wordplay and homophony in its verbal recreation of a butchery ritual.

Apart from the burial of Unas, only the Pyramid of Teti displays the Cannibal Hymn.

A god who lives on his fathers,

who feeds on his mothers…

Unas is the bull of heaven

Who rages in his heart,

Who lives on the being of every god,

Who eats their entrails

When they come, their bodies full of magic

From the Isle of Flame…

The Cannibal Hymn later reappeared in the Coffin Texts as Spell 573.[68] It was dropped by the time the Book of the Dead was being copied.”

>> It’s important to note that incest marriage and cannibalism didn’t exist in Mesopotamia/Sumerian culture….. I’ve never found anything related to it, nor any hints about it over there. But in ancient Egypt the incest marriage was heavily practiced in the royal family for many centuries; while there is no tangible evidence of cannibalism being performed openly. It’s only mentioned in texts like this one.
