Abstract:Early Coptic tombs, two at least, were discovered on the Upper Terrace of the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari. The orientation of the tombs is north–south, which is the typical orientation for early Christian tombs. Christian activity is attested at Deir el-Bahari in contexts starting from the 4th century.
