Summary/Abstract: The season yielded 30,386 ceramic sherds which were sorted and classifed according to a typology prepared based on the surface finds from the first season. The typology was revised and enlarged to include new evidence. Two main phases of site occupation were represented in the assemblage: late New Kingdom and beginning of the Third Intermediate Period. Despite parallels between the two assemblages, the pottery repertoire in one and the other was completely different.
