Title

Excavation work at Kashkush

Description

Photograph showing excavation in progress at Kashkush, near Debeira.
While local workers are visible in the foreground, clearing a mudbrick structure, the Europeans are surveying the scene from above. The trio is composed by archaeologist R. Holthoer, Norsk TV crew K.A. Wig, and photographer R. Utne (fromm left to right). Workers are not named.

G. Bettings' stay at Debeira coincided with the venue of H.M. Princess Margrethe of Denmark. A Danish TV crew followed the visit and covered some of the excavation work carried out at the time.
