الملخص:The first season of fieldwork undertaken at Nekhen (Hierakonpolis) under the auspices of the ARCE was largely concentrated on the so-called townsite, Kom el-Ahmar. Quibell, the first excavator there in the season of 1895-96, had worked chiefly on the southwest corner of the site, where a temple complex was revealed. This complex appears to cover a time range from the Archaic Period to a late phase of the Old Kingdom. The chronological spread was confirmed by token exploration of other places on the mound, which also revealed that the larger part of the mound was enclosed by a mudbrick wall.
