Despite a limited time on-site, great discoveries and observations were already made during this first survey, the results of which will be presented in this talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Amandine Merat<\/strong> is an Archaeologist and Researcher in Egyptology, with a specialisation in ancient and archaeological textiles.
