Abgig a place in the fertile Faiyum area, south of the Giza plateau. Vast estates and orchards were situated here, and a large Stela of Senwosret I (1971-1926 B.C.E.) was discovered as well. The stela is now at Medinet el-Faiyum. Abgig was kept in all periods of Egypt's history as the rustic resources of the area warranted pharaonic attention.
