Sumario:During the third and fourth seasons of fieldwork, the New Kingdom Scribes Project undertook epigraphic, conservation, cleaning and documentation tasks in the burial chambers of TT 61 and TT 87. The aims included: the continuation of the epigraphic study and the restoration of the walls of the burial chambers; the systematic cleaning of the underground structures in TT 87; the detailed digital documentation of both monuments once the archaeological and restoration works had advanced or concluded; and the application of non-destructive techniques to study the materials used by ancient craftsmen and scribes to decorate the walls.
