description | Faience beads in the form of jewels, which decorated the
bodies of the deceased, represent a regular constituent of
the burial equipment of officials, priests and their families
in the Old Kingdom period. While most tombs were robbed
already in ancient times, beaded jewels were often disregarded
by the robbers. Despite the fact that the context
had been disturbed and the threading material usually
decomposed, the beads stili allow us to gel an idea of the
appearance of the original jewels. The odds improve further
if an intact burial is discovered. Such situation has occurred
twice in the case of the rock-cut tomb of the dignitary
Nefer. During the archaeological seasons in the years
2012-2014, two of the four shafts uncovered were found
intact (AS 68d, Shafts 3 and 4).
The three sets of beaded jewels which were found in
Nefer's tomb belonged to a man, woman and a child, providing
an opportunity for a remarkable comparative material
study. The potential of these finds consists not only in
their state of preservation, but also in the variability of their
owners that will enable us to compare the burial practices
used for individua! members of a high-ranking family who
lived in the second part of the Old Kingdom period. |
