Overview

"'The city of Sais was the capital of Egypt during the Twenty-Sixth Dynasty but has a much longer history. Since 1997 a joint mission of the Egypt Exploration Society and the University of Durham has been surveying and investigating this important site. This first volume, by the Field Director, Dr Penelope Wilson of the University of Durham, includes descriptions of Sais by early travellers and writers, and accounts of early excavations, followed by the results of the surveys carried out by various means including geomagnetic and drill augur surveys. A chapter on 'The Archaeology of Sais' gives the author's interpretations of the evidence, and there are lists of objects from the site, now in storage magazines or museums' - ""Excavation Memoirs 77"", Egypt Exploration Society 2006."
