This sixth volume in the ''Survey of Memphis'' series, by Lisa Giddy, describes the late Middle Kingdom levels excavated in the 1980s at Kom Rabi''a, Memphis, by the Egypt Exploration Society team. Following an introduction outlining the Society''s work at Kom Rabi''a and summarising the extant Middle Kingdom remains at Memphis as a whole, there is a detailed description of the late Middle Kingdom stratigraphy revealed at Kom Rabi''a, accompanied by in-text figures illustrating the salient characteristics of each level in the six sectors investigated. Complete lists of the contexts excavated and objects discovered are provided. There follows a reconstruction of events across the site, and a final essay evaluating the importance of Kom Rabi''a for our understanding of late Middle Kingdom Memphis.
