This volume is a study of the tombs of officials in the Theban
necropolis, now lost, but documented in the manuscripts of
travelers to Egypt in the early and mid 19th century. One such
traveler was the accomplished draftsman Robert Hay, who made
unpublished facsimile drawings which have been re-drawn by the
author Lise Manniche for this book. The descriptions and drawings
are used to reconstruct the decoration of tomb chapels in the
Theban necropolis and to assess their ownership and place in
history. The book also examines fragments of relevant wall
decorations found in museums and other collections.
