This book examines a group of twelve ancient Egyptian tombs (ca.
2300 BCE) in the elite Old Kingdom cemetery of Elephantine at
Qubbet el-Hawa in modern Aswan. It develops an interdisciplinary
approach to the material drawing on methods from art history,
archaeology, anthropology, and sociology, including agency theory,
the role of style, the reflexive relationship between people and
landscape, and the nature of locality and community identity. A
careful examination of the architecture, setting, and unique text
and image programs of these tombs in context provides a foundation
for considering how ancient Egyptian provincial communities bonded
to each other, developed shared identities within the broader
Egyptian world, and expressed these identities through their
personal forms of visual and material culture."
