Experts from France have found jugs, bowls and foundations of a 'monumental calcarenite building', likely a temple.

They think the town could have been the location of a huge wine-making operation that used Akhenaten 's daughter (and Tutankhamun 's sister) in its branding.

Settlement could date back as far back as the 18th Dynasty (c. 15501292 BC ).
