> former Cook tourist boat "Fostat", accompanied by another houseboat, the "Barbara", a tug
> boat, and a motor launch, all purchased and modified to provide mobile housing, laboratories
> and storage space. In the first season the project produced an epigraphic record of the Beit
> El-Wali Temple, near the High Dam. In subsequent seasons the expedition moved its little fleet
> up the Nile to a new concession between the temples at Abu Simbel and the border of the
> Sudanese Republic. Excavations were conducted in a monastery, at habitation sites, and in a
> number of cemeteries extending for miles along both banks of the Nile. These excavations
> contributed information on every period of Egyptian Nubia from the Old Kingdom through Coptic
> times.
