flag Egyptian and French archaeologists found an 18th-century mudbrick city and Byzantine-era cemetery in Upper Egypt, complete with homes, tombs, and artifacts.

flag A joint Egyptian-French team has discovered an 18th-century mudbrick city and a Byzantine-era Coptic necropolis at Sheikh Al-Arab Hammam in Upper Egypt’s Qena Governorate, between Dendera and Abydos. flag The site includes six homes with unique features like domes and palm roofs, service buildings, and an industrial zone, along with artifacts indicating a thriving community. flag Beneath it, a burial ground with simple and enclosed tombs held textiles, jewelry, and a copper baking stamp. flag Geophysical surveys led to the find after a reused limestone coffin lid was identified. flag Bio-archaeological studies on about 23 human remains will examine health, diet, and age. flag The site, significant due to sparse historical records, may become a tourist destination.
