Porter, Bertha, Rosalind Moss and Ethel Burney: Theban Necropolis: Private Tombs

For the first time, this classic Egyptological reference work is available in an easy-to-carry and relatively inexpensive paperback form. It is one of a number of volumes that have been re-released in paperback that catalog the reliefs of ancient Egyptian tombs and temples, known collectively by Egyptologists as "Porter and Moss." This particular volume covers the private tombs of the Theban Necropolis. In addition to scene-by-scene descriptions of the reliefs in these tombs, the work also gives bibliographic references to publications that describe or illustrate these tombs. A thematic index at the end of the volume is particularly useful, as these tombs are very important for our knowledge of daily life in ancient Egypt. Order now:
