Although most scholars now believe that the royal tombs of the Egyptian first dynasty were located in Abydos rather than in Saqqara, the discussion of the location has been based mainly on the comparison of tomb size rather than tomb artifacts. In this paper, the location will be reconsidered based on the use of Palestinian pottery found within the tomb artifacts.<br>This time a corpus has been collated of Palestinian pottery of the Egyptian first dynasty, including the unpublished data of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford and the Petrie Museum in London. From an analysis of this corpus, some interesting features are observed.<br>The observations of the pottery ware distribution in Egypt indicate that there is a clear difference in the usage of imported ware dependent on type. The LFP (Light Faced Painted) ware seems to have been much more highly prized and it has been suggested, was used to contain the famous scented oil of Palestine which was placed near the body of king. The RP (Red Polished) ware however, was important more as a container of foreign goods such as wine, oil, etc. though still restricted to a small number of people. Accordingly, it is concluded that the Abydos tombs with the many LFP ware artifacts were of royal use, while Saqqara would be for high officials and is consistant with the conclusion from the studies of tomb size.
