ARCHAEOLOGY AT WADI GAWASIS
more  -->

The site of Mersa/Wadi Gawasis is one of only a few known Ancient Egyptian Red Sea ports and has provided a wealth of information on Middle Kingdom maritime traditions and the development of trade into Central Africa and the far east. The site was excavated over several years by an Italian based group from the University of Napoli Oriental Insititute and the posters were gifted to the SFU Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology by them in 2013.
