A pioneering Egyptologist, Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie
(1853-1942) excavated over fifty sites and trained a generation of
archaeologists. Originally published between 1902 and 1904 for the
Egypt Exploration Fund, this three-volume set of reports documents
the excavations that Petrie initiated at one of ancient Egypt's
most sacred sites, the necropolis at Abydos. These reports follow
on from the findings 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 2
accounts for the discoveries made during the 1902-3 clearing of the
site of ten successive temples, spanning the period from the first
dynasty to the twenty-sixth. More than sixty pages of plates
illustrate the discoveries, which range from first-dynasty ivory
figures to thirteenth-dynasty stelae. A chapter by Francis
Llewellyn Griffith (1862-1934) sheds light on the inscriptions.

Once the political centre of Lower Egypt, the city of Tanis was in
ruins by the time pioneering archaeologist W. M. Flinders Petrie
(1853-1942) arrived in the late nineteenth century. He recruited
more than a hundred workers from nearby settlements to help with
his excavations there. Now reissued together, these two reports of
Petrie's discoveries were originally published separately in 1885
and 1888. His colleague Francis Llewellyn Griffith (1862-1934)
contributes epigraphic analysis and translations. Each report
contains much illustrative content, such as maps and photographs of
the sites as well as drawings of the finds and hieroglyphic
inscriptions. The 1888 publication also covers work carried out at
Nebesheh and Defenneh, neither of which had been previously studied
by archaeologists. Alexander Stuart Murray (1841-1904) discusses
the important discoveries of painted vases at the latter site. Many
of Petrie's other Egyptological publications are also reissued in
this series.
