Le site de Mahgar Dendera 2, en Haute Egypte, est le seul site Badarien découvert et fouillé depuis plus d'un demi-siècle. Il s'agit d'un site d'occupation saisonnière, qui peut être daté aux environs de 4100 av. J.-C. L'ensemble faunique indique que les occupants arrivaient sur place avec leurs troupeaux durant l'étiage. La proximité du Nil leur permettait de mener paître les animaux lorsque les pâturages étaient devenus rares autour de l'habitat permanent. Ils pratiquaient également la pêche, probablement dans le lit mineur du Nil. Le site était abandonné à la décrue, quand les zones inondées redevenaient guéables et que le travail des champs pouvait recommencer.

Le matériel lithique représente un outillage spécialisé, vraisemblablement tourné vers le travail de matières périssables telles que le bois et le roseau. La céramique n'était pas fabriquée sur place et servait en grande partie au stockage. Les structures d'occupation comprennent des foyers, des trous de poteaux et de stockage. Une partie importante du site ayant déjà disparu au moment de la fouille de sauvetage, il n'a pas été possible de reconnaître des structures bien définies.

Ce volume contient le rapport de fouille final, illustré d'un grand nombre de dessins et de photos. (texte français et résumé en anglais)

The site of Mahgar Dendera 2, in Upper Egypt, is the only new Badarian site excavated for over 50 years. It features a seasonal campsite, dating to about 4100 BC. The faunal remains indicate that that people arrived at the site with their flocks at the moment when the Nile was low. Because the site is located close to the Nile, this allowed them to herd their animals when grazing possibilities became scarce in the vicinity of the permanent settlement. Furthermore, they were fishing, probably in the main channel of the Nile. The site was left when the Nile started to rise, and the flooded zones became fordable and work in the fields started again.

The lithic material represents a specialised industry, apparently orientated towards working perishable materials such as wood and reed. Pottery was not produced at the site itself and served largely for storage purposes. The occupation features consist of hearths, post holes and storage holes. As an important part of the site was already destroyed at the time of the salvage excavation, it was impossible to identify well defined constructions.

This volume contains the final excavation report, illustrated by a large number of drawings and photo's. (text in French with English summary)
