About "Nawamis in Egypt's Sinai desert"

by Marjan Schmit Visser

About the artwork

In the quiet, rocky landscape of the Sinai Desert, nawamis are scattered across the sandy plains. These round stone structures, built from horizontal layers of sandstone, are among the oldest known stone buildings in North Africa. They probably date back to the Chalcolithic era, between 4000 and 3150 BC.

This image shows a cluster of nawamis in the warm, soft light of the approaching evening. In the foreground are weathered rock slabs leading to the distinctive structures, each with an open entrance, facing west. The rhythm of the shapes and the open landscape create a sense of space, tranquillity and harmony.

The nawamis raise questions: who built them, and for what purpose? They are remnants of a time when survival in the desert called for knowledge, rituals and connection to the environment. This sculpture captures not only a place, but also an atmosphere of stillness, transience and respect for what once was.
