Divine Creatures (Book Review)

http://www.egypttoday.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=5043
Edited by Salima Ikram, the book Divine Creatures "is basically a series of essays written on the subject of animal mummies and mummification that starts by addressing the general and most accessible and then progresses to discuss the more specific and technical. These range from the reasons behind animal mummification to the detailed analysis of particular cults. The book is illustrated throughout with numerous maps of key sites, in both black and white and color, which show the sheer extent of the catacombs." See the article for more.
