The 'Egyptian House' (el Beit el-Masry) is one of 24 tombs (no. 21) on the Greco-Roman necropolis in Tuna el-Gebel, situated about 14 km east of the ancient city of Hermopolis (modern Ashmunein) in Middle Egypt. The tomb lies in the southeastern part of the necropolis. It consists of four vaulted rooms above ground, three of them deployed in a row behind the facade with the entrance in the central one, and a fourth hall located in the back, standing above the burial chamber. The walls of the entrance hall and the back room were decorated with murals. The Supreme Council of Antiquities in association with the Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology of Warsaw University has initiated a conservation project to preserve the murals decorating certain of the chambers of this tomb. The work of this mission started in 2005 with a first season for assessing the present state of the wall paintings and implementing conservation procedures that would end in the murals being remounted in the original location.
