Kom Difshu is a large archaeological area with several distinct zones, but most of it is underneath a modern cemetery. The main area is a mound sloping gently up to the north-west with a high point of about 10-12m above the level of the fields. It is covered with modern tombs. To the south of the modern cemetery is a flat and sandy area, about 1-2m above the cultivation-level. At the south-western side there are pottery coffins buried about 1m below the surface, indicating the location of an ancient cemetery. Egypt Exploration Society Delta Survey no. 624.
