Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the ancient Egyptian necropolis of Thebes. It begins by considering the state of Thebes as the ancient capital of Egypt. Most notably, the author discusses the difficulty of tracing the city's condition over centuries, emphasizing the value of studying its characteristics in order to understand historic investigation generally. The book evaluates the lack of detailed data on Egyptian sepulchral practices and explains the reasons behind the scarcity of this information. It highlights previous excavations and the challenges faced by researchers due to the extensive looting of tombs. The text presents the results of the author's own excavations, which included uncovering an undisturbed tomb of an official and a burial site for the poor. Furthermore, the author explores evidence of early metallurgy in ancient Egypt and discusses the illicit trade in Egyptian relics, emphasizing the damage it has done to monuments and the importance of protecting them. The book concludes by discussing the present tenants of the tombs and their rulers, shedding light on the social and political dynamics of the region. Overall, this book provides a valuable resource for understanding the significance of the Theban necropolis and its contribution to our knowledge of ancient Egyptian civilization.
