1894 EGYPT Exploration Ahnas El Medineh Tomb of Paheri Hieroglyphics Archaeology

This book is the eleventh memoir of the Egypt Exploration Fund. The book is two volumes bound in 1, "Ahnas el Medineh" (Heracleopolis Magna) with chapters on Mendes, the Nome of Thoth, and Leontopolis and "The Tomb of Paheri at El Kab".

"Ahnas el Medineh" focuses on two excavation campaigns by Swiss archaeologist Edouard Naville at Ahnas el Medineh, known as Heracleopolis Magna, the Roman name of the capital of the 20th nome of ancient Upper Egypt. This first work is illustrated with 17 plates, of which 4 are black and white illustrations, 1 map, and 12 photogravures.

'The Tomb of Paheri at El Kab,' deals with the excavations undertaken at the tomb of Paheri, an ancient Egyptian prince. His grave was one of the best preserved. The grave images illustrate agricultural scenes, rituals for the dead, and a large banquet. This second work is illustrated with 10 black and white plates.
