The Coffins and Mummy-Covers from Bab El-Gasus at the Geographic Society of Lisbon (Monumenta Aegyptiaca, 14, Band 14) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The objects published in this book belong to the Eighth Lot of antiquities found in Bab el-Gasus, the collective tomb of the priests and priestesses of Amun (Theban necropolis, 21st Dynasty), currently kept at the Geographic Society of Lisbon. In this undisturbed tomb - the largest ever found in Egypt - 153 burial assemblages were uncleared. Combining new conceptual frameworks with epigraphic methods of survey, this catalogue proposes a thorough methodology for the textual description and visual documentation of each object, having in mind the future development of comparative studies with the whole sample of more than 250 coffins and mummy-covers found in the tomb.
