Kom ed-Dahab Located in the marshes and undisturbed areas of the lake, in steady decline for more than fifty years, Kom ed-Dahab – the Golden Hill – is very isolated and accessible only by boat. For the first time, in September 2015, an expedition of the Oriental Institute – joined by the Egypt Exploration Society Delta Survey – reached this site and conducted the first archaeological explo-ration of this terra incognita in order to confirm on the ground the result of remote sensing.
