Special noteAmong Egyptian religious texts three distinct groups may be correlated: The Pyramid texts, The Coffin texts, and The Book of the dead. The Pyramid texts comprise material engraved in five pyramids, ca. 2625-2475 B.C., and older texts from ca. the 35th-25th cent. B.C., written exclusively for pharaohs--Cf. Breasted, J.H. The Oriental Institute, 1933, chapt. VII.
