The Giza Necropolis

Mastabas, pyramid texts, and objects from the plateau · 14,474 objects.

The cemeteries around the Great Pyramids: mastaba tombs of Old Kingdom officials, royal statuary, and the Pyramid Texts. The Harvard-MFA Giza Archives catalogue the excavation; their photograph host is still down, so records from that source show a placeholder. Museum objects found at Giza, and ORAEC editions of texts from the plateau, are what you can actually see and read.

Expedition photographs are unavailable while the Giza Archives image host is down. The sample uses museum photographs of Giza finds and the texts recovered there.
