Season summary:
The excavations were sponsored by the Graeco-Roman branch and thus were concerned with recovering cartonnage from the Graeco-Roman period rather than objects or material from different time periods.
Excavation lasted from February 28-March 3rd in a heavily looted cemetery. A Ptolemaic cemetery was identifed but was water-logged and some Roman graves were excavated.
