Researchers have deciphered an ancient Egyptian handbook, revealing a series of invocations and spells.

I’d love to see a complete English language translation of this. This seems like great inspiration for role-playing game use, and also for world building. This is written in Coptic; nice to see what that looks like on the page. It also strikes me that if I didn’t know better, I would assume this was a made-up script made precisely for rpg prop purposes, with characters that almost look like something recognizable to an English language reader.  Maybe our made-up stuff isn’t so far-fetched after all…
