New geoarchaeological research shows that metalworking in ancient Egypt led to significant contamination in a nearby port.

Adapting to Environmental Hardship

The study provided further insight into how ancient Egyptians adapted to environmental challenges. As the Nile River receded and Khufu Harbor shrank, metalworking continued. As the Nile reached its lowest level, around 2200 BCE—a period marred by civil unrest and grim rumors of cannibalism—metal contamination remained high, suggesting a resilient infrastructure and workforce.
