Lahun is one of the best preserved ancient Egyptian towns. The plan and the finds give a good picture of a late Middle Kingdom town (about 1850-1700 BC). The site was cleared in 1889, very early in the history of archaeology, and therefore the specific findspots of single objects were recorded in only a few instances.
Among the most important finds are the papyri and the many objects of daily
use.
