The Cemetery of Meir III : Volume III: The Tomb of Niankhpepy the Black Paperback / softback
by Ashraf Senussi, Anna-Latifa Mourad, Miral Lashien, Naguib Kanawati, Linda Evans
Part of the ACE Reports series
Paperback / softback
Description
The book contains the excavation and recording of Tomb A4 and its decorated burial chamber belonging to Niankhpepy the Black, whose son Pepyankh the Black built two communicating tombs A1 and A2 for his father and himself, then linking the chapel of Tomb A1 to the burial chamber of Tomb A4 via a sloping passage.
This is an exceptional example of filial affection in ancient Egypt.
The scenes and inscriptions as well as the architecture of Tomb A1 have been re-recorded and are published in this volume.
Minor tombs with finds were discovered in the rock-cliff face in the area between Tombs A1 and A4, and have been dated to the late Old Kingdom/early First Intermediate Period.
