The area adjacent to the Pyramid of King Djoser on the monument's west side, so far neglected by archaeologists, turned out to be an important burial place of the Egyptian nobility from two periods of Pharaonic history: the Old Kingdom (the late third millennium BC) and the Ptolemaic Period (the late first millennium BC). The earlier, lower cemetery yielded rock-hewn tombs with splendid wall decoration in relief and painting. The book also describes methods of conservation applied to the discovered artefacts and episodes from the mission's life. 517 $aIn the Shadow of Djoser’s Pyramid 517 $aIn the Shadow of Djoser?s Pyramid 606 $aArchaeologists 615 0$aArchaeologists. 676 $a913.393103072022 700 $aMys?liwiec$b Karol$0479666 702 $aSte?pien?$b Mi?os?awa 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585588003321 996 $aIn the Shadow of Djoser's Pyramid$93012878 997 $aUNINA
