The Northern Necropolis of Gebelein was a place of important discoveries, e.g. an archive of Old Kingdom papyri, the Tomb of Unknowns, and the Tomb of the General Iti II. Several excavations have taken place there, but none have been sufficiently published. The archaeological contexts of these discoveries are poorly known, which limits their research value. Archival data from two unpublished excavations can help to understand the archaeological topography of the eastern part of this cemetery. The current survey of the area enables the authors to understand the progress of previous excavations, to locate in the field some of the archaeological features discovered during the twentieth century excavations, and contributes to contextualisation of some of the artefacts which were discovered at the cemetery. The necropolis in question presents the development of an important, provincial burial ground which can contribute to the understanding of the history of the region and the funerary traditions in provincial areas. Worth to note are the peculiarities, such as an Old Kingdom mastaba with subsidiary burials within its walls, mummified dogs in a Twelfth Dynasty tomb, and Nubian influence on local funerary customs.

从旧的和现在的田野调查来看 Gebelein 的北部墓地

Gebelein 的北部墓地是一个重要发现的地方，例如古王国纸莎草档案、未知之墓和伊蒂二世将军墓。在那里进行了几次发掘，但没有一次被充分公布。这些发现的考古背景鲜为人知，这限制了它们的研究价值。来自两个未公开发掘的档案数据有助于了解该墓地东部的考古地形。目前对该地区的调查使作者能够了解先前挖掘的进展，在该领域定位 20 世纪挖掘过程中发现的一些考古特征，并有助于将在墓地发现的一些手工艺品置于背景中。所讨论的墓地展示了一个重要的省级墓地的发展，这有助于了解该地区的历史和省级地区的丧葬传统。值得一提的是其特殊性，例如城墙内有附属墓葬的古王国马斯塔巴、第十二王朝墓葬中的木乃伊狗，以及努比亚对当地丧葬习俗的影响。
