Reseña del libro "Tell El-Farkha Iii: The Cemeteries of the Eastern kom (en Inglés)"

The following richly illustrated pages present 143 burial structures discovered in the Eastern Kom of Tell el-Farkha, the eastern Nile Delta, Egypt, which comprised the remains of 152 individuals. The graves date to the long period between the Protodynastic and the Old Kingdom, that is, ca. 3300 -2600 BC. However, they did not belong to a single burial ground, but to a series of sequentially used smaller cemeteries. In general, materials collected from the sepulchral context of the site are diversified and offer a lot of data useful for discussion on the people, their material culture, burial customs, and - in a further perspective - also on the beginning of the ancient Egyptian civilisation. The situation is especially favourable because of the settlement's proximity which was inhabited by the same people who built the graves and because most of the structures escaped plundering. The book summarises nearly 20 years of fieldwork conducted at the Tell el-Farkha cemeteries by the Polish Expedition to the Eastern Nile Delta, which in their large part, although not exclusively, were supervised and published by the author.
