Aside from two entrances noted on the east face of the cliff at the beginning of the 1980s, all the tombs discovered thus far (and in certain cases, only in the course of exploration or excavation) are located on the south face of the cliff of the Bubasteion and are, for the most part, arranged on two levels (at least one more level seems to be still mostly hidden by rubble and wind-blown sand). The French Archaeological Mission of the Bubasteion (MAFB/FAMB) has chosen Roman numerals to designate these levels: I (upper) and II (lower). On each level, every tomb, even when there is nothing more than an entrance, has received an Arabic numeral, beginning with the east corner of the cliff, where the project of exploration and excavation began.
