The PCMA expedition to the Fourth Cataract occasioned an opportunity to carry out a prospection of the Gebel Gurgurib area near Shemkhiya. Altogether 64 rock-art sites were identified and documented. All are located from one to five kilometers east and north of the center of the village of Shemkhiya. The glyphs were made on hard crystalline rocks covered to a varying extent with waste and desert patina. The selection of surfaces for making drawings depended on exposure with regard to communication trails. Altogether more than half a thousand drawings were identified. Most of these were images of camels, some with riders, as well as giraffes, an elephant(?) and antelope, a single bird drawing (ostrich or bustard), six crosses, six “stars” and a single human figure, as well as two inscriptions in Arabic and a few dozen unidentifiable images.
