7.4 Archaeoentomological analyses

Original language description

The second part of the monograph on the results of the archaeological research of Werkaure's mastaba (AC 26) and its surroundings in central Abusir focuses on the contexts dating back to the First Intermediate Period, the Middle Kingdom, the New Kingdom, and the first millennium BC. The focus of the work is on analyses concerning the secondary burial that developed in the area of tomb AC 26 and the adjacent tombs of AC 32 during the Third Intermediate Period and the Late Period. A large number of finds and ecofacts were discovered during the archaeological excavations, which are comprehensively discussed in this multidisciplinary publication of eight chapters. The text deals with the analysis of the relevant finding situations, which have often been extensively damaged by later interventions, and the development of the mastaba area and its surroundings during the aforementioned periods. Furthermore, the discovered parts of the material culture are analysed - funerary equipment of the deceased, wooden coffins, pottery, textile finds, and their fragments. A rather extensive part of the monograph consists of anthropological analyses of skeletal remains, a large number of which were discovered in tombs AC 26, AC 32 and their surroundings. Along with archaeological and anthropological analyses, analyses of collected samples using palynological, botanical, zoological, xylotomic, and entomological methods are an important part of the monograph. The publication presents conclusions concerning the development of the central part of the Abusir necropolis after the end of the Old Kingdom period. The text of the monograph is supplemented by rich pen-and-ink and photographic documentation. Chapter 7.4 contains entomological results.
