abstract = "The third phase of work at the White Monastery (Dayr Anba Shenouda, Sohag) funded by an Antiquities Endowment Fund grant from the American Research Center in Egypt has, in some ways, been even more exciting than the previous two. Wall painting conservation, archaeological investigation, art historical, and historical study have continued at the site of a small Triconch Funerary Chapel (TFC), located at the west edge of the ancient monastery, close to a modern cemetery. It was discovered in 2002 by Mr. Saad Mohammed of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities. It includes the remains of a triconch chapel with an adjacent complex of rooms to the south, and a well preserved, painted underground tomb consisting of a small antechamber and a barrel-vaulted burial chamber. A Heritage Management plan has been developed with proposals for the preservation of this delicate monument. All work is being undertaken in collaboration with the Supreme Council of Antiquities, and with the support and hospitality of Bishop Yohannes and the monks of the White Monastery, for which we are very grateful. This article continues reports published in 2007 and 2009 on this AEF funded project.",
