Abstract
The Survey of Memphis continued in 1991 with three main objectives: (1) to explore the buried stratigraphy beyond the ruin field by means of drill cores and resistivity meter survey; (2) to study the material excavated from six seasons of excavation on Kom Rabi'a; (3) to complete the first stage of the Epigraphic Survey by copying the large Middle-Kingdom inscribed block found re-used as a support beneath the granite statue of Ramesses II at the west gate of the Ptah enclosure. As in previous seasons, work was also carried out at Memphis in collaboration with inspectors of the EAO, notably on Kom Qal'a and Kom Rabi'a, as well as with other colleagues at Saqqara.
