Remains of residence and wine press at Sakhmet Temple

The Egyptian-Chinese joint archaeological team uncovered remains of a residential complex and a press believed to have been used for wine production, along with a collection of archaeological finds, during excavations at the Sakhet Temple in Mit Rahina. The results indicate that human settlement in the area persisted from the Third Intermediate Period through the Hellenistic-Roman era, despite the decline of the temple's religious role and the area's transformation into a residential neighborhood. These new findings are significant for understanding the economic and living conditions in the region across different eras.
