For example, why were certain areas of the necropolis selected for burial in certain time periods; what were the tombs? spatial relations to contemporaneous and older monuments; and what effect did earlier structures have on the positioning of tombs and structuring of the necropolis in later times? This study adopts landscape biography as a conceptual tool to study the long-time interaction between people and landscapes. 410 0$aCulture and History of the Ancient Near East ;$v131. 410 0$aBiblical Studies, Ancient Near East and Early Christianity E-Books Online, Collection 2023. 517 3 $aBiography of an Ancient Egyptian Cultural Landscape 606 $aTombs$zEgypt$zS?aqqa?rah.  606 $aTombs$zEgypt$zMemphis (Extinct city)  606 $aCultural landscapes$zEgypt$zS?aqqa?rah.  606 $aCultural landscapes$zEgypt$zMemphis (Extinct city)  606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zEgypt$zS?aqqa?rah.  606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zEgypt$zMemphis (Extinct city)  607 $aS?aqqa?rah (Egypt)$xAntiquities 607 $aMemphis (Extinct city) 607 $aEgypt$xHistory$yNew Kingdom, ca. 1550-ca. 1070 B.C 615 0$aTombs 615 0$aTombs 615 0$aCultural landscapes 615 0$aCultural landscapes 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a932/.2 700 $aStaring$b Nico$01431529 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910746985503321 996 $aThe Saqqara Necropolis through the New Kingdom$93573944 997 $aUNINA
