The article presents the exploration of crypts discovered in the mid 1990s in the Northwest Annex of the monastery on Kom H in Dongola but not fully excavated. The present work combined the expertise of archaeologists, anthropologists and textile specialists to examine the preserved burials. Part one, prepared by Włodzimierz Godlewski, concerns the architecture of the crypts. Part two, prepared by archaeologist and anthropologist Robert Mahler, describes the conditions in which the exploration of the two crypts took place. It contains a description of the burials and a reconstruction of the burial sequence. Part three, prepared by textile restorer and specialist Barbara Czaja-Szewczak, concentrates on textiles and clothing accessories that were found in the two burials.
