Kasr el-Harit is a small, dusty pueblo located in the heart of the Egyptian desert next to the River Nile. It is the site of historical importance, namely because of 2 pieces of brass were excavated that were linked to a scutum, a type of Roman shield. It is rumored that the site may contain scrolls similar to the Mayan celestial calandar, but sientists have dismissed the theory.
