Coles Nephthys: The House of Eternity: Gods of Egypt, Myth and Mystery, #19 at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
At the threshold where life ends and eternity begins stands a goddess rarely seen—but always present. Nephthys, the silent counterpart to Isis, guarded the hidden spaces of Egyptian belief: the tomb, the bier, the boundary between worlds. While other gods ruled the sky, the sun, and the throne, Nephthys ruled something deeper—the fragile moment of transition itself. This book uncovers the overlooked architecture of death and rebirth, revealing how ancient Egyptians understood the afterlife not as an ending, but as a passage that had to be protected, enclosed, and sustained.
Through a careful reading of funerary texts, coffin imagery, and ritual practice, Nephthys: The House of Eternity brings to light a goddess whose power was never meant to dominate—but to endure. For readers drawn to ancient Egypt, hidden symbolism, and the mysteries of the afterlife, this is a journey into the unseen dimension of belief, where silence is sacred, boundaries are everything, and eternity begins in the house she keeps.
