As quoted by Radio Australia, Monday (21 / 6), the Austrian archaeologist found what they believe to be Avaris, the capital used by the Hyksos who ruled 3600 years ago.

Egyptian Ministry of Culture said, an Austrian expert mission conduct geophysical surveys in the area that allows them to identify the parts Avaris city in the Nile Delta near the modern town of Tal al-Dabaa, northeast of Cairo.

Radar maps showing overall picture of a town complete with streets, homes and burial ground, one of the former Nile tributaries flow through the city, and the two islands.

The Asiatic Hyksos invaded Egypt around 1569 BC and ruled for more than a century, with the central government in the capital in the Nile delta.

When Egypt was returned to power, they destroyed all the monuments and records and the city was buried during a flood in the Nile Delta.
