Summary/Abstract: A Third Intermediate Period settlement continued to be excavated by a Polish–Slovak archaeological team working in Area 9 in Tell el-Retaba in 2019. Two houses, {1095} and {3111}, have been studied in detail, applying an activity-area analysis to determine the main occupation activities of the inhabitants in successive phases. The analysis is based on the archaeological assemblage recorded from these features, including small finds, pottery, and installations.
