Mud Pan

Egypt / al-Wadi al-Jadid / El Harga /
 prehistoric, natural monument
mud pan with Yardang field; used to be the bottom of a lake in stone age times that dried out and the wind eroded the dry bottom of the lake in a very scenic way. The remaining sculptures are called mud-lions or Yardangs. On the former beach of the lake, you could find neolitic artefacts.
