The Tomb of Amenemhab No. 44 at Qurnah by Hassan El-Saady Pdf

This text provides a full and practical record of one of the tomb-chapels of ancient dignitaries of Western Thebes, all once brilliantly painted. Number 44 is the tomb of Amenemhab, a priest who served the great god Amon of Thebes under the imperial splendours of Rameses II. Its features include some unusual scenes, such as the cult of the great ram-headed Standard of Amon, and the rite of smashing pots at funerals, very rarely shown in Egyptian art. The author's descriptive text gives a clear acount of the contents of the tomb-chapel which complements the full series of linear and photographic plates and provides English translations of all the hieroglyphic texts set out clearly in its own section of the text.

Ancient Egyptian artists produced masterpieces and works of funerary art on a scale never seen before or since. This book is the first to discuss the artistic development of funerary scenes over the four hundred years of the New Kingdom, covering the different reigns of the period. It shows the sequence of events in the funeral processions and how they developed over the course of time. Moreover, it covers many different sites in the Theban necropolis, including scenes from many closed and unpublished tombs. This first-ever survey describes the pictorial drama that was the funeral procession, explores rare and unique scenes, and shows the echoes that remain from these ancient funerals in modern Egypt today.

The Theban Necropolis by Nigel Strudwick,John H. Taylor Pdf

This book also indicates the direction that research might take in the future."--BOOK JACKET.
