Abstract

This article deals with Coptic modifications in the Pharaonic tombs at Beni Hassan, which were converted into Christian structures. The total number of the converted tombs at Beni Hassan is 10. These tombs originally date back to the Middle Kingdom (the 11th and 12th dynasties). These tombs were reused by the early Christians during the fourth century AD. Some of the tombs were transformed into educational places, while others were converted into churches or habitats.
