Meir is the
necropolis of El Qusiya, which was ancient Cusae, the capital of the fourteenth
Nome of Upper Egypt. Unusual and distinctive, scenes in here are very natural
and realistic, particularly in the Chapels of Senbi and Ukhhotep. Some scenes
even verge on caricatures. Recent renovations have added considerable
texture and color of these images. There are Nine tombs we believe to be open
to the public and an additional six that were never finished and remain
nu-excavated.
Cause you can
see the grid work that the art Tomb one and two, which adjoin each other, are
inscribed with 720 pharaonic deities. However, during the early Christian
era, the early Cops who used the tombs defaced many of these, which they were
prone to due elsewhere. Tomb four is interesting beists used to create the
tomb art.
