Conservation of the earthen architectural assets at Pepy I necropolis archaeological site: how to adapt to climate change?

Résumé

During March 2020, Saqqara was subject to an unprecedented series of heavy rains that have affected most of the earthen archaeological remains present at the site. As part of the Nile’s Earth ANR funded project, a series of missions were carried out at the site in November 2021 aiming at suggesting and possibly start experimenting specific measures that could improve upon the conservation practices already in place at the site for several years. This paper first describes Pepy I necropolis and the specificities of the earthen assets present at this archeological site. It then summarizes the results of the overall condition survey and risk assessment made in 2021, including a critical analysis of some of the previous conservation techniques applied on these structures and, as a result the justification for the choices made for the first corrected measures implemented. It finally covers the first results observed, including after the site having received a new heavy rain, by the end of 2021, and what are the proposed research activities to be implemented in the future.
