The plateau is across the Nile and a little upriver from Cairo. Workers report on the 11 excavations they conducted during the two seasons, among them Khentkawes Town, the Wall of the Crow, burials, Main Street East and clues to the pedestal mystery, the northwestern bakeries, and the Royal Administration Building. Other reports describe spot heights on the third-millennium landscape, a ground-penetrating radar study, geomorphology, and a laser scanning project. Over 50 color plates include labeled photographs and maps, computer projections, and imaging. No index is provided. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co.
