Volume I was devoted to the reliefs, and volume II to the objects and skeletal remains from the tomb. The closely dated burial assemblage of Maya (Year 9 of Horemheb) and associated offering pottery form the basis for tracing the development of pottery forms in the late Eighteenth Dynasty and continuing into the Ramesside Period. The wealth of blue-painted pottery (amounting to 187 vessels) is carefully described, the motifs represented in the designs are discussed, and aspects of the chronological development of blue-painted pottery are illustrated. 96 colour photographs are included showing many of these beautiful blue-painted vessels. Numerous inscriptions on the pottery provide interesting information on the actual contents of the vessels provided for Maya's burial.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Egypt Exploration Society","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47888602661015,"sku":"9780856982453","price":9472.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780856982453.webp?v=1781166975","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-tomb-of-maya-and-meryt-iii-the-new-kingdom-pottery-9780856982453","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
