Abstract EN

Urgent rescue excavations have played a great role in protecting many lost urban heritage sites and preserving them from eternal extinction due to urban expansion during the modern era, which is the expansion that has caused the devouring of some cities in their entirety.

As the city of Salihiya, built by Sultan al-Saleh Najm al-Din Ayyub on the outskirts of the eastern Egyptian delta; Without the salvage excavations, we would have lost a rare architectural legacy that records for historical eras, few surviving archaeological evidence, and among the most prominent of these cities that the salvage excavations have contributed to safeguarding from the eternal extinction in recent times is the city of the Ayala “Aqaba” in Jordan; In Egypt, one of the most important and largest ancient cities of Sinai that was recently preserved, the city of al-Farma, which is located in northwestern Sinai on the outskirts of the eastern delta and the desert.

The Franks destroyed them and burned them, so they became a quarry for the reconstruction of the neighboring urban urban centers.

During the Israeli occupation of Sinai, the city of al-Farama was subjected to violations, as the bulldozers of the occupation army were working in it to prepare it to be a fortified military site for them, and to supply other military sites with the remnants of their buildings to pave roads and construct strong points, which resulted in the destruction of half of the city.

since her return to Egypt, the work of uncovering its various buildings began since 1983, and with the launch of the North Sinai Development Project, the North Sinai Antiquities Rescue Project was launched since 1994 AD by conducting rescue excavations and urgent architectural restorations, which was the role of the President in pushing the danger away from the antiquities of the city of al-Farama, and its preservation and development They are the works that were credited with saving the largest and most important ancient city in every Sinai that would have disappeared forever like many of the cities that ceased to exist in the Arab and Islamic world.
