High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Book of Caverns is an important Ancient Egyptian funerary text of the Ancient Egyptian New Kingdom. Like many funerary texts, it was written on the inside of the tomb for reference by the deceased. It describes the journey of the sun god Ra through the six caverns of the underworld, focusing on the rewards and punishments in afterlife. The earliest appearance of this work is in the left hand wall of the Osireion in Abydos. It first appears in the Valley of the Kings, in the tomb of Ramesses IV, in place of Amduat, where it was recorded by Champollion in his letters for Egypt. The book has no ancient title, and is not divided in the hours of the night as other Ancient Egyptian funerary texts are. The Book of Caverns originated in the Ramessid Period. The book is known to be an underworld book that speaks of the deceased who fail their judgment in the afterlife, and also the rewards of those who pass the judgments. The Book of Cavernsis one of the best sources to date that gives us the best view of the Egyptian concept of Hell.
