Abstract

At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Center held on June 30, Miss Elizabeth Thomas a member of long-standing and an able scholar in Egyptian archaeology, was appointed to make a survey of royal tombs of the Theban necropolis under the auspices of the Center. This survey will include a topographical study of such tombs, both within and without the Biban el-Muluk, a discussion of tomb-types, sarcophagi, and other significant features. Miss Thomas plans to begin her survey during the coming season. She has very kindly offered to undertake the work at her own expense, as a contribution to the Center.
