Abstract
Los estudios de J. Assmann sobre las características que tiene la memoria cultural en las primeras civilizaciones han originado diferentes debates además de haber abierto nuevas líneas de investigación. En este trabajo analizaremos qué se entiende por memoria cultural para, posteriormente, buscar los orígenes de dicha memoria cultural del Egipto Faraónico cuando apareció el Estado y en tiempos predinásticos. Con posterioridad comprobaremos cómo la memoria cultural pervivió en el Egipto faraónico a lo largo de más tres mil años de historia. Una memoria cultural que se transmitió a través de los textos y, especialmente, de una forma visual con los monumentos, funerarios o no, que transmitían no solo unas creencias funerarias, también una concepción del mundo en el que los antiguos egipcios vivieron. La estrecha relación que existió entre dicha memoria cultural y lo que los antiguos egipcios veían en su entorno explica la perdurabilidad, no solo de sus creencias, también de una civilización que fue capaz de emitir unos mensajes que eran entendidos por todos los miembros de la sociedad.
