Summary/Abstract: Fieldwork in the Monastery Church on Kom H in Old Dongola during two successive seasons in 2006 concentrated on clearing the entire length of the southern aisle of the building and the chambers in the western end. Excavations outside of the building covered the structure east of the eastern end of the church, the graveyard to the southeast of the church, the courtyard south of the southern entrance to the church and a hall (CB 2) of the so-called Central Building, just north of the north church entrance.
