A team from the University of Liverpool undertook the first season of fieldwork at the site of Tell Nabasha near the modern village of el- Hosayneya in the North-eastern Delta in the autumn of 2015. After mapping the eastern portion of the tell, the team conducted test excavations revealing domestic architecture dateable to the transitional period between the Late Period and the early Ptolemaic. More than 200 small finds, as well as 600 diagnostic sherds of pottery and whole vessels were recorded. The ceramic corpus was largely domestic in nature but included a smaller amount of Phoenician and Hellenistic imports
