The Tombs at Beni Hasan

Abstract

IN the handsome volume which lies before us the Egypt Exploration Fund publishes the first part of an “Archæological Survey of Egypt,” which it proposes to issue under the direction of Mr. F. L. Griffith; and we believe that it will be generally admitted the site selected for description and illustration in the first part of the projected work could not have been better chosen. We are also very glad to see that the committee has changed the scene of its excavations from Lower to Upper Egypt, for there it is moderately certain that excellent results will accrue to the archæologist and Egyptologist.

Beni Hasan.

Part I. (Published under the auspices of the Egypt Exploration Fund.) By P. E. Newberry G. W. Fraser. (London: Kegan Paul, 1893.)
