The Tomb of Maya and Meryt I. The Reliefs, Inscriptions, and Commentary Geoffrey Thorndike Martin with contributions by Jacobus van Dijk and Kenneth J Frazer Maya was one of the most important officials of state under Tutankhamun. The holder of many titles in the administration, the chief of which was Overseer of the Treasury, he was also responsible for the security of the royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings. Maya and his wife Meryt erected a magnificent tomb at Saqqara, the necropolis of the capital city, Memphis. Wrecked in antiquity by tomb robbers, much remained nevertheless to be recorded by the EES-Leiden mission, which located the tomb in 1986. The present volume provides a full record of the architecture, scenes, and texts in the superstructure, as well as the unique painted substructure reliefs of the monument, detailed indexes, and an overview of the life of the tomb-owners. EES Excavation Memoir 99. ISBN: 978 0 85698 206 4. 2012. Price: £80. EES Members and Friends of Saqqara Foundation (to 31 December 2012): £40
