Abstract
The survey of Memphis continued its excavation at Kôm Rabî‘a in the south-west quadrant of the Memphite ruin field, finding evidence of terracing up to the north and west and a substantial rebuilding of the central property not earlier than the reign of Tutankhamun. The Epigraphic Section began its survey of the Ptah temple with a study of the colossal limestone statue of Ramesses II at the south gate. Work proceeded at Saqqâra on publication of the Mother of Apis stelae from the Sacred Animal Necropolis, and on the ceramic collection from the Anubieion.
