5.0 out of 5 stars FINE REPRINT OF IMPORTANT JOB ON OLD KINGDOM TOMBS, November 30, 2000

This review is from: Saqqara Mastabas Part I (Egyptian Research Account, 10) (Hardcover)

This book was originally published in 1904 and had famous German Egyptologist, Kurt Sethe, as co-author. Then, it contains the first edition of several important mastabas from Old Kingdom date at Saqqara, including the well-known offering-niche of Khabauseker and his wife Neferuret, both now at Cairo Museum. Texts and representations are all studied in-depth and finely reproduced in line-drawings and photographic plates. Let us note that this edition also includes the work by L. Loat, "Gurob", so that it is two-fold interesting. Take note that the title has been out of print for a long time, so that it is much searched for. O.K., price is high, but contents is invaluable!
