Parmi les multiples vies d’Audran Labrousse, celle de l’architecte-archéologue doit retenir toute notre attention. Homme de terrain insatiable, il parcourt les chantiers de fouille depuis un demi-siècle, sillonnant le Proche-Orient et l’Afrique de l’est avec son regard aiguisé et un sens inné des monuments et des civilisations qu’il côtoie. De Suse à Sedeinga, de Pétra à Jérusalem, il observe, analyse, et recense les vestiges des multiples sociétés qui se sont succédé dans ce croissant si fertile au carrefour de l’Afrique et de l’Asie.
Fort de cette érudition qui le caractérise, c’est à Saqqâra qu’il trouve le mieux à exercer ses talents d’architecte et d’homme de terrain. La rencontre avec Jean Leclant et Jean-Philippe Lauer le convainc de consacrer ses efforts à la restitution des vestiges monumentaux qui font le renom de cette nécropole royale. Directeur pendant quarante ans des fouilles de la nécropole de Pépy Ier, il met au jour le complexe de ce roi et les ensembles des reines qui lui sont associés.
Cet ouvrage se veut à l’image de ce travailleur infatigable. Ses amis et collègues présentent ici un témoignage de reconnaissance et lui offrent un ensemble de contributions qui toutes rendent hommage à l’œuvre entreprise, par des études archéologiques et d’histoire, des présentations de monuments ou d’objets inédits provenant pour l’essentiel de la vallée du Nil.
