Polish archaeologists have been exploring Tell el-Farkha - a site in the Eastern Nile Delta in Egypt - since 1998. The site has a 1000-year-long history (3700-2600 BC) starting before the emergence of the Egyptian state. Until the 1st Dynasty, Tell el-Farkha, located on the trade route between the southern Levant and Upper Egypt, was one of the most important cities in the Nile Delta, then it became a royal domain. The golden figurines and the votive deposits discovered in two chapels of the administrative-cultic centre confirm its close relations to proto-kings and early rulers. Explorations of the site led to discoveries of many housing structures and big residential, administrative and cultic edifices as well as one of Egypt's oldest brewery centres. Richly furnished graves indicate the high social status of Tell el Farkha's inhabitants. The importance of the site is also confirmed by the presence of art objects made of gold and ivory. Moreover, thanks to research at Tell el-Farkha much information on everyday life in Egypt at the turn of 4th and 3rd millennium BC was collected. Subsistence strategies included farming, breeding and fishing as well as trade. The beer production was of great importance too. This exhibit chronicles the work of Polish archaeologists at Tell el-Farcha, their discoveries, how the methodology of scientific discovery has changed over the past 25 years, and how the region surrounding the site has changed and developed during that time.
