British Museum Egyptologist Dr John Taylor said he was 'floored' by the discovery of the 100 fragments.
It's the end of a worldwide search by archaeologists for the papyrus scroll - which supposedly contains spells to guide spirits into the afterlife.
The "book of the dead" exists in numerous copies and, I believe, a few of them are complete. This story is really misleading.
