Details: The title put on the cover is a little bit misleading because this is a reprint of of the 1929 editon of The Bandlet of Rightousness An Ethiopian Book of Life Also Known As The Ethiopian Book of Dead (so the title page says). This is valuable book for the persons interested in magic elements in Ethiopic tradition. It deals with several Christian [!] spells, mystic God’s names etc. It is pretty important for Ethiopic tradition. So buy this book which has also the original Ge’ez text attached.
ATTENTION: Do not be misled by the similiar title reccomended also by Amazon, I mean The Bandlet of Rightousness The Ethiopian Book of Dead! Do not buy it! It is the same book as recently reviewed although deprived of Ge’ez original. See my review of that item.
