Abstract
A report of the preliminary archaeological survey carried out during 1992 in the Wadi Abu Had in the Eastern Desert. Its main objective was to discover a secondary route in the less well-known areas of the Eastern Desert that could provide a link between Egypt and the Near East. The topographical layout of the region was examined and evidence sought on inhabitants, either itinerant or semi-nomadic, who might have occupied this area at various stages of prehistoric and historic Egypt. Large scatters of flint and knapping sites were discovered, dating from the Lower Palaeolithic to the Holocene. Additionally, stone structures varying from desert hearths, road markers, and small cairns to rock shelters were sighted, together with Bedouin remains and sherd scatters.
