A. Previous Work

The existence of this large tomb ( No. 14 ) must have been patent to visitors at all periods ; but as the entrance was almost completely blocked with sand, what was visible was extremely unpromising, and the tomb was not cleared by M. Urbain Bouriant in 1883 . This task, however, was carried out by M. Alessandro Barsanti ten years later, and M. Georges Émile Jules Daressy published most of the texts of this tomb of a " flabellifère ", but not his name, for he found it erased from the inscriptions .
