In the article "Excavating the 'Pompeii of the Desert,'" Dr. Nicola Aravecchia joined Ampersand writer Jenny Bird for a conversation about his work at Amheida/Trimithis, a Graeco-Roman city in Dakhla where the team had previously discovered an early Christian church. Dr. Aravecchia has been excavating at the site since 2005, and become its field director in 2022. In September, Dr. Aravecchia published "Early Christianity at Amheida (Egypt's Dakhla Oasis): A Fourth-Century Church."
