The pre- and early dynastic necropole near by Minshat Abu Omar can be dated (Carbon dates) in the time from 3300 till 2900 B.C. Till now, there were 418 graves investigated. The dead people were buried in left or right flexed position. High salt concentration in sand destroyed the bone material extraordinary, so that morphometric analysis could not be done. The determination of sex and/or age was possible for 87.08% of the individuums. The average of the life-span was about 26 years. The village consists of 20 till 50 huts with 107 till 120 inhabitants.
