Kom Firin
Reports
The permission to undertake archaeological fieldwork in Egypt is
granted by the Supreme Council of Antiquities in Egypt. It is
stipulated that missions submit a report on each season of work.
The reports produced for the Nile Delta of Egypt: Kom Firin
project are made available here.
Please note that these reports are preliminary in nature, and
have not been modified from their original form. Therefore,
conclusions and interpretations in earlier reports may have been
revised. However, making the reports available online allows
scholars and other interested persons to see the latest results of
excavations, as final publication can take many years.
