Bahnasa (Oxyrhynchus): 1985/6

The Kuwaiti mission concentrated on the ruined mosque of Zain al-Abidin, at the north-western edge of the modern village; they also opened exploratory trenches in the vicinity. Their site plan also marks the ‘Phocas pillar’ at upper left; the eastern end of Petrie’s colonnade would lie buried under the contours to the left.
