This volume continues the ceramic history of the Saqqara Anubis
temple, excavated by the Egypt Exploration Society from 1977 to
1979. Volume IV covers the Late Dynastic Period. From at least the
mid- 6th century BC onwards, burials appear to have been made in
the earlier shaft tombs as well as in a new cemetery in the sand. A
temple to Anubis, god of the dead, was commenced at the same time,
abandoned during the Persian Period but restarted around 400 BC.
The ceramics include bowls used by the embalmers as well as
offering vessels and the repertoire of the fourth century builders.
