Hi, I am looking for information. I read a lot of Ancient Egyptian text translations, and I am wondering where they come from. I know that a lot of the papyri get translated, like the Book of the Dead, and other similar texts. I am wondering which were the most important. I know there are Coffin texts, Pyramid Texts, as well. What are the translations that had the most prominent place in their society? These writings would be the writings on their temples, like the temples of Edfu, Luxor, and Karnac, to name a few. Is there a translation of the temple walls? And lastly, were there writings inside any of pyramids, like at Saqqara? Thank you all for your help.

These examples are interesting. Would you, Lutz, be able to compile a list of the direct translations of the temples?
