The main task of our expedition "Egypt-2013", was the detailed study of the quartzite quarry sites of the ancient Egyptian builders.
Along with the gps-data and information of the reports of different archeological missions, we visited this area in searches for artifacts, located along the ancient roads, which like the Nazca Lines are crossing the quartzite quarries of Aswan Desert.
More details in the expedition report of ISIDA Project 2013.
