A large undertaking of the main expedition was the clearance on the desert edge of a mound known as Kom-el-Abd, and the excavation of a "pan-grave" cometery. Though the latter had been badly plund- ered, it gave new evidence about the Nubian mercenaries of the Second Intermediate period. Semi- circular trenches were cut round the gravs, and painted skulls were buried in these with the horns protruding from the ground, while large fires were it in the neigh- bourhood of the graves. Bedouins told the expedition that until re- cently such, fires were made in Mostem cemeteries to keep hyenas Amer. Rolling MI 304 from digging up the bodies.

His existence was an enviable one in a amall, stonebuilt house with a cave behind, and in front a stone-paved terrace. He kept goats and possibly, bees; his diet included a supply of dates and. It seems, wine. The paths he used round the hill are still visible.

SAHARAN CIVILISATION Another small, but important," work was undertaken, Le.. the continued search for more tangible remains of the Saharan cfvills- ation, sherds of which have pre- vlouly been found in the Armant area. A new technique was applied, all the surface of the ground in the neighbourhood of these sherds being sieved. Ten small sites were treated in this way, and though the results have yet to be studied. some tentative conclusions have been put forward.
The culture was a Bedouin one, as might be expected, and settle- ments were not occupied for any length of time. The dead probably ourled above
ground under a mound of stones, and the bodies have been lost. The culture certainly comprises more than one period. one of which, probably the latest, existed some time during the Protodynastic period.
the remaining problems promise to resolve themselves under the present method of and the
