This new volume in the collection Paleographie hieroglyphique is dedicated to the mastaba of Mereruka (early 6th Dynasty). It examines the 356 hieroglyphic signs carved (and sometimes painted) found in the tomb. The palaeographical commentary defines the nature of each sign considering the other variants in the contemporary sources and details their different uses in this monument as well as in others. The book is illustrated by 108 plates based on the publication of the mastaba by the Oriental Institute of Chicago, presenting a selection of characteristic drawings of the various hieroglyphs identified.
