Abydos

Funerary enclosure of Merytneit as Petrie published it (Petrie 1925: pl. XVIII)

Only small parts of the brick enclosure wall survived: tombs of servants surrounded the enclosure.

Abydos, fort of queen Meritneit

 

The funerary enclosure built with mud bricks of an unknown king, maybe Anedjib or Semerkhet (Petrie 1925: pl. XVIII)

It seems to be the first enclosure without tombs of servants.

Abydos, fort of the First Dynasty
