Dishna, Egypt

Dishna (Arabic: دشنا, from Coptic: ⲧⲉϣⲛⲏ, lit.

[2][3] An expedition of the Southern University of Texas explored the Sebilian culture on the Dishna plains.

[4] The Ain Khoman tools of Oasis Baharia were identified as similar to the Esnan industry of the Dishna dated to c.12,300 B.P, differing only with respect to bifacial tools.

[5] Several sites between Wadi Kubbaniya and the plains contained assemblages also of Esnan industrial production.

[6] The Esnan industry, also known as Mesnian, employed a non-levallois technique, productions composed largely of end-scrapers, though also including a much smaller number of arch-backed bladelets and trapezoid.
