Some of the stories include:The stories are retold rather than strictly translated, meaning Murray simplifies and sometimes modernizes the language to suit early 20th-century readers.Margaret Alice Murray (1863-1963) was a British Egyptologist, archaeologist, and folklorist. She was a student of Flinders Petrie and contributed significantly to the popularization of Egyptology in the English-speaking world. She was also notable for her controversial theories on witchcraft in later works.
