The book titled The Migrations of Early Culture: A Study of the Significance of the Geographical Distribution of Mummification by Grafton Elliot Smith is a scholarly work that delves into the topic of early cultural migrations and their impact on the practice of mummification. The author examines the distribution of mummification practices in different regions of the world, including Egypt, Peru, China, and the Pacific Islands, among others. The book explores the historical and cultural context in which mummification arose, and the various factors that influenced its development and spread. Smith also investigates the possible reasons why certain cultures adopted mummification while others did not, and how this practice evolved over time. The author draws on a wide range of sources, including archaeological evidence, historical records, and ethnographic studies, to provide a comprehensive analysis of the subject. He also includes numerous illustrations and maps to help readers visualize the distribution of mummification practices across different regions. Overall, The Migrations of Early Culture is a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in the history of cultural migrations and the development of ancient practices such as mummification. It offers a detailed and insightful examination of the subject, and provides a wealth of information and analysis for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of this fascinating topic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
