abstract = {This dataset contains archaeological and heritage sites of the Marmarica region
(NE-Libya/NW-Egypt), ranging from the Late Bronze to the Roman times. It has been
developed in the framework of the PERAIA project, which aims to analyse the longterm
history and interaction patterns along the harsh environments of north-eastern
Africa. The records contain accurate geographic location of sites, including place
names, typology, chronology, and metadata of documented remains, along with
information regarding the environmental and ecological context. Additionally, the
dataset accounts for the specificities of the region’s varying environmental conditions
and their potential impact on archaeological heritage. All this information associated
with each archaeological site was collected from published field data surveys, maps,
archaeological reports, and it was subsequently cross-checked with historical aerial
photographs and satellite imagery to detect, and to register known and unknown sites
within the study area. Regarding the potential reuse of all this data, the dataset is
deposited on the project website and linked to Zenodo.},
