Abstrakt
The volume contains 30 contributions by 35 scholars, reflecting the widespread, often multidisciplinary interest of researchers into a wide variety of different topics related to the Memphite cemeteries. Individual contributions include some of the latest results of archaeological explorations, new interpretations of archaeological evidence within the framework of social and environmental development and climate change, new approaches to long-known texts and inscriptions, the application of modern computer-based analyses of the society of the day, as well as newly understood historical, social and landscape connotations of some sites and monuments.
