Abstract
The paper presents several case studies on obscure words and passages in the Coffin Texts to demonstrate that this corpus remains significantly understudied and many of its current interpretations suffer from oversimplification. The comparative analysis of cognate passages and motifs throughout the Coffin and the Pyramid Texts highlights some so far unrecognized concepts in the early Egyptian mortuary texts and suggests that these texts are much more complicated than is commonly assumed.
