| Summary: | This paper presents the results of ni ne seasons of the joint
Polish-Siovak archaeological mission in Tell ei-Retaba in
Wadi Tumilat, conducted since 2007. The results of the excavation
have been published so far in several preliminary
reports. The work of the Polish-Siovak team at the site has
brought new insights into the long history of the site and
corrected some outdated information, based on more or
less regular initial surveys and excavations. ln this article,
the main features of the settlement in respective periods
are described, starting with the oldest occupation phase
during the Second lntermediate Period, represented by
a cemetery and a settlement. The excavated archaeological
material sheds more light on the problematic end of this
period and informs us about life during the early New Kingdem.
lt has enabled us to much better reconstruct the
development of the Ramesside fortresses with their elaborated
fortification system, temple as well as buildings for
their inhabitants. lmportant proofs of far-reaching international
contacts with the regions of Levant as well as the
Aegean have been found. Last but not least, the later life
of the settlement during the Third lntermediate Period can
now be partly reconstructed, showing the continuing importance
of the site. |
