Since the connection of the two parts and their heights do not match, I suspect that the Book of the Dead and the Amduat are on two different sheets of papyrus. Niwinski writes “The pap. London 57 consists, practically, of two independent papyri found together on a mummy, about which nothing is known at present.”
