Schiestl, Robert ORCID logoORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8295-1835 (Dezember 2023): The fragment of a model of a tower house from Kom el-Gir, central northwestern Delta. In: Journal of Egyptian Archaeology, Bd. 109, Nr. 1-2: S. 297-303 [PDF, 791kB]

Abstract

This article discusses a fragment of a model of a tower house found on the surface at Kom el-Gir in the central northwestern Delta. The settlement of Kom el-Gir, which was used at least from the Ptolemaic to the Late Roman Periods, showed a dense occupation of towerhouses, based on magnetic prospection. A reconstruction of what the house model may have looked like is suggested and the possible uses of such house models are discussed.
