The second volume of the Beni Hassan series is devoted to the recording
and study of the only decorated Old Kingdom tombs at the site. The tombs
of Ipi and Bebi have never been completely recorded in drawing and
photographs since their publication by J. Garstang in 1907. The
examination comprises detailed coloured plates, complete line drawings
as well as the translation and interpretation of all the scenes and
inscriptions in the tomb. The commentary additionally includes a report
on the tombs' architecture as well as a study of a large amount of
pottery discovered in the shafts and dating to the period from the Sixth
to the Twelfth Dynasty.
