Pharoanic village unearthed

An expedition of the Supreme Council of Antiquities discovered the remains of adobe-built pharaonic village in Daqahlia province. Inside the nine unearthed houses they found out daily-life utensils such as cooking pots plus amulets and trinkets that shed light on the religious creeds available at that time among the villagers.

The archeologists found also a bronze toy shaped as goddess Hat'hur and a statue in the form of kid-Horus. Other metal remains were discovered: pieces in silver, necklace of silver beads and bronze coins.
