Another season of rescue excavations as part of the MSDAP project to the Fourth Cataract was carried out in the Polish concession by a team from the PATRIMONIUM Foundation. The chief objective of the season was finishing the excavation of the post-Meroitic cemetery of El-Sadda 1, while completing a survey of the southwestern part of the concession. A choice of sites in the vicinity of El-Sadda village was explored in order to provide data for anthropological and cultural comparative studies. These included SD28 (Neolithic remains), (SD24) tumuli cemetery, classified as Kerma horizon in the survey, proven in excavation to be Late Meroitic/post-Meroitic, (SD4) tumuli cemetery, at least one grave from the Old Kush period, thus predating the post-Meroitic period, (SD34) Christian cemetery (in lieu of the box-grave cemetery at SD12 which could not be excavated). An effort was made to complete excavations at the Late Meroitic/post-Meroitic cemetery in Hagar el-Beida 1 with its exceptionally big ‘royal’ tumulus (T10). The work had to be interrupted again because of local unrest. Faunal remains from the Neolithic site of SD28 and the post-Meroitic cemetery of SD1 have been analyzed, as were the human skeletal remains from the archaeological sites in El-Sadda.
