| Abstract | ||
| A large production area with remains of many intense and differentiated activities was identified at Mersa/Wadi Gawasis at the base of the western slope of the southern terrace. This area was characterized by many accumulations of vessel sherds, mixed with numerous clusters of bread molds and wide areas of charcoal and ash. The principal goal of the investigations was to understand more accurately the crafts performed at the site and the resources exploited. A second goal was to gain insights into the organization, duration, and logistics of the seafaring expeditions from this site through the study of the extent and functional characteristics of this area at the site. | ||
