Discover an ancient tomb in vivid color and careful reconstruction.

This book offers a detailed view of Perneb’s Fifth Dynasty mastaba, from its original construction to its reassembly in a modern museum.

The pages walk a clear path through the tomb’s layout, the sculpted facade, and the decorative program. You’ll see how the walls once looked with bright pigments and learn how conservators and curators recreate the structure for visitors today. The narrative combines excavation history with a close look at painting techniques and inscriptions that bring the tomb’s life and its owner into focus.

How the mastaba was planned and built in the Sakkara cemetery
The role of the offering-chamber, the serdab, and the main burial chamber
The colors, materials, and painting methods used on the walls
The process of re-erecting the tomb in a museum setting and its interpretive details

Ideal for readers of ancient Egypt’s art and architecture, museum studies, and decorative programs of tomb interiors.
