The article reports on the archeological work done in Egypt. For many years, excavations have been carried on in various parts of Egypt under various auspices. At Naga ad-Der, opposite the thriving town of Girga, Messrs. Archeologists are bringing to a close the work begun several years ago and continued every winter. Here thousands of tombs have been opened, belonging to all periods from prehistoric times to the Twelfth Dynasty. The vast necropolis contains also tombs in an almost unbroken series to the Eighteenth Dynasty. The actual excavation at Naga ad-Der is completed, and expedition of the University of California, is now busy near the Pyramid of Gizeb.
