This volume presents recent research on all aspects of the Old Kingdom in Egypt, ranging through the Pyramid Texts, tomb architecture, ceramics, scene choice and layout, field reports, cemetery layout, tomb and temple statuary. The contributions also show how Egyptology is not stuck in its venerable traditions but that newer forms of technology are being used to great effect By Egyptologists. The authors cover a wide range of sites and monuments, with a large part of the volume exploring material from the great cemeteries of Saqqara and Giza of the Old Kingdom capital city of Memphis, as well as discussion of the smaller sites. The volume includes papers presented at a conference in 2009 at the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, and continues a series of publications of the latest research presented at previous meetings in Paris, Berlin and Prague. Much new material is published here and the papers are fully illustrated with over 200 photographs and drawings.
