Ancient Naukratis: The excavations at Kom Hadid by Albert Leonard PDF Summary

Book Description: Reports on digs in the western Nile Delta at the ancient city Herodotus identified as the first and only one in which Greek merchants were allowed to settle. The site was given top priority by an international association in 1979 because the accelerated processes of decay and modernization were jeopardizing remains. A review of the history of the excavations is followed by reports from the four quarters of the cite. Chapters then examine pottery, miscellaneous material culture, carbonized plant remains, human burials in the south mound, animal bones and shells, and fish bones. The first volume reports work at the southern end of the ancient city, at a mound within the modern village of Kom Ge'if; the second reports that at the northeast of the village in an area known both to Petrie and local farmers as Kom Hadid.
