Extract

Mr. Peter Holmes was able to return to photograph the wall in the Gebel south-west of Asabaa, called Hadd Hajar, mentioned in the Society's Second Annual Report, 1970–1, p. 11. Pl. VIII shows one of his photographs. In the foreground is Ras at-Tays al-Abyad, and the main wall below, which runs for 6 km. to Ras Sa'id. A small quantity of pottery found by the watch-tower was clearly Roman, and included an amphora rim and small pieces of late Roman lamp. 2½ km. south of Hadd Hajar near its south-west end another watch-tower was found on Ras at-Tays al-Aswad.
