Bir Umm Fawakhir is a fifth-sixth century AD Coptic/Byzantine gold-mining town in the central Eastern Desert of Egypt. This is the final report on the 1996 and 1997 excavation seasons, completing the detailed map of the main settlement, continuing the investigation of the outlying clusters of ruins and looking at the gold-extraction process.
