The excavations of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of
Archaeology and Anthropology at Marsa Matruh on Bates's Island,
which is located on the seacoast at the north of Egypt's western
desert, uncovered a small site with a metalworking workshop and
nearby houses. The pottery found in the excavations indicates that
this small Late Bronze Age settlement had links to several
cultures: Cyprus, the Aegean, Egypt, the coast of western Asia, and
the local Marmarican people. The results of the excavations are
published in two volumes. This volume provides an overview of the
excavations at the site, the Late Bronze Age and historical period
occupations, and an introduction to the environmental morphology
and history of the island.
