Originally published between 1902 and 1904 for the Egypt
Exploration Fund, this three-volume set of reports documents the
excavations begun by the pioneering archaeologist Sir William
Matthew Flinders Petrie (1853-1942) at one of ancient Egypt's most
sacred sites, the necropolis at Abydos. These reports follow on
from the findings that Petrie published in The Royal Tombs of the
First Dynasty (1900) and The Royal Tombs of the Earliest Dynasties
(1901), both of which are reissued in this series. Volume 3 was
produced by Petrie's younger colleagues, Edward Russell Ayrton
(1882-1914), Charles Trick Currelly (1876-1956) and Arthur Weigall
(1880-1934). The report includes chapters on the tombs of Senusret
III and Ahmose I. More than sixty pages of plates illustrate the
discoveries, which range from simple flint implements to elaborate
stelae. A chapter by Alan Gardiner (1879-1963) sheds light on the
inscriptions.
