Examines the characteristics of Saqqara village, suggesting its potential as a tourist site.
This paper examines the role of Saqqara village as a settlement in Egypt, based on previous studies on the Egyptian settlement, the findings from our studies over a three-year period, and a supplemental survey that we conducted this year. Although located in the vicinity of the large city of Cairo, Saqqara has characteristics of a typical old village, or a karya-type village. Its local community and culture as well as its old buildings and living space make Saqqara a potential tourist site that can offer visitors insights into old Egypt.
