Beni Hassan cover

The magnificent tomb of Khnumhotep II has never been completely recorded in drawing and photographs since its pioneering publication by P. E. Newberry in 1893. This report comprises detailed coloured plates, complete line drawings as well as the translation and interpretation of all the scenes and inscriptions in the tomb. The commentary includes studies on the tomb architecture, the extensive biography of the owner, the represented arrival of the Asiatics, and the depicted flora and fauna.

“A beautifully illustrated book that highlights every detail of one of the most stunning tombs in Egypt; professional and armchair Egyptologists alike will want to add this volume to their wish-lists. If only all the tombs of ancient Egypt could be documented in this way! “ * Ancient Egypt Magazine *
