G. Caton-Thompson and E. W. Gardner designated new Pleistocene cultural units at Kharga Oasis in the 1930’s: both were originally termed ‘pre-Sebilian’, but were later locally named the ‘Levalloiso-Khargan’ and ‘Khargan’ industries. High on the Bulaq scarp face, a puzzling cluster of stone ‘alignments’ was discovered in 1931–32, with a reported, but discounted, association with ‘Levalloiso-Khargan’ artefacts. Gardner excavated some features in 1933. Members of the Kharga Oasis Prehistory Project relocated ‘Site J’ in January 2011, and verified the reported Khargan associations with the features. In 2008, the project found structural features associated with Khargan artefacts in the northern Gebel Yebsa survey area, confirming earlier finds in the southern oases of Kurkur and Dungul. Evidence there, and that found in Kharga and Dakhleh oases, is now designated as the Khargan Complex. The associated built stone features of the included cultural units appear to be unique in Late Pleistocene Africa, especially at Bulaq.

中石器时代可汗人是否留下了结构特征？'Site J'，'空旷沙漠'被遗忘的定居点，Kharga Oasis，埃及：1933 年和 2011 年

G. Caton-Thompson 和 EW Gardner 在 1930 年代在 Kharga Oasis 指定了新的更新世文化单位：两者最初都被称为“前塞比利亚”，但后来在当地被命名为“Levalloiso-Khargan”和“Khargan”产业。1931-32 年在 Bulaq 陡坡的高处发现了一组令人费解的石头“排列”，据报道与“Levalloiso-Khargan”手工艺品相关联，但被打折扣。Gardner 于 1933 年发掘了一些特征。Kharga 绿洲史前史项目的成员于 2011 年 1 月重新安置了“Site J”，并验证了所报告的 Khargan 协会与这些特征。2008 年，该项目在北部 Gebel Yebsa 调查区发现了与 Khargan 文物相关的结构特征，证实了早先在库尔库尔和 Dungul 南部绿洲的发现。那里的证据，以及在 Kharga 和 Dakhleh 绿洲中发现的证据，现在被指定为 Khargan Complex。包含的文化单元的相关人造石特征在晚更新世非洲似乎是独一无二的，尤其是在布拉克。
