Excavations at El Hibeh, Egypt

Hello and welcome to our excavation website.  We are now preparing for our fourth season at the site of El Hibeh, Egypt and would like to share some of our discoveries and experiences with you.  As the map shows, the site itself is located in on the ancient boundary between upper and lower Egypt, just south of the town of Beni Suef and on the other side of the river.

Many will be aware of the looting talking place at El Hibeh in Winter 2012.  Documentation of the looting, and advocacy for the protection of El Hibeh and other sites in Egypt can be seen at the Facebook group Save El Hibeh Egypt.
