Pictures: Herneith Tomb. Saqqara Mastaba S3507


Saqqara Mastaba S3507, tentatively identified as the tomb of Queen Herneith. Although the royal tombs
at Abydos have yielded numerous female remains, there is no evidence to suggest that queen consorts
of the Early Dynastic period were buried there alongside their husband and sons. Ancient Egypt History

Pictures: Great Tomb at Naqada.


The Great Tomb at Naqada, first assigned to King Aha/Menes, as now believed to have belonged to either Aha's mother, Neithhotep, or to an anonymous local dignitary. The impressive size and sophisticated design of the mud-brick tomb reveal the skill of the Early Dynastic builders. Ancient Egypt History.
