El Qattah

El Qattah, also known as Qattah or El-Qattah, is an ancient Egyptian site in Lower Egypt, roughly 10 miles northwest of Letopolis.

It is noted for its tombs of the Middle Kingdom, and was excavated extensively in 1904 by a team from the Institut Français d'Archéologie Orientale of Cairo, a team which included Henri Gauthier.

[1][2] One of the chambers at the site contained texts from the Book of the Dead.

[3] In 1906 it was reported that a modern village is located here.
