In 2006, research in the western part of the administrative and cultic complex at Tell el-Farcha (Eastern Nile Delta) was begun. The eastern part of this complex was examined in 2001, when i.a. a votive deposit spilled in one of the rooms was discovered. During the 2006 excavations a room (8 × 3.30 m) was unveiled, where several cultic vessels were found as well as a small jar filled with votive artefacts. There were 62 specimens in this jar, mostly figurines from hippopotamus tusks. The entire deposit, of a unique historical and artistic value, was made before the middle of the first dynasty and is so far the only deposit of this kind firmly dated. It includes i.a. depictions of women, children, captives, one of the anonymous Egyptian rulers, fantastic creatures, and most of all dwarfs.

In 2015, sappers clearing an area in the Forest District of Okonek found a deposit of bronze objects. The hoard consisted of 12 bronze objects deposited in a clay vessel. The deposit consisted of: 1 fibula of Spindlersfeld type, with a convex bow ending with two spiral discs with a moveable pin, 1 plate fibula – a variety with smooth discs, 5 bronze bosses (discs), 2 ornamental objects made of wire, in the form of a double, massive spiral disc with a protruding loop, and 3 clothing buckles. All objects are in a very good state of preservation and are partly covered by patina. Based on analogies, the above-described deposit can be dated to the 5th period of the Bronze Age.
