Ain el-Tarakwa |

The outline of Ain
el-Tarakwa is barely visible on the ground, since the archaeological
remains lie deeply buried under metres of sand. As Ain el-Dabashiya, the
site is virtually unknown and has never been investigated before. It
appears to consist of the well-preserved remains of a small sandstone
temple, surrounded by a rectangular enclosure wall packed with rooms.
Abundant pottery and surface finds indicate that the site was once
inhabited by busy little community. |
