From 12 until 28 of February 2020 the Nubian archaeological and anthropological mission of the Anuchin Research Institute and Museum of Anthropology, Lomonosov Moscow State University carried out the third season of archaeological works at the site Deraheib. The site is situated in the Red Sea province of the Sudan Republic in headwaters of Wadi al-Allaqi near the border with Egypt. Archaeological excavations geodesic survey and ethnographic research have been carried out during the season. Important information has been obtained in the course of archaeological work. It allowed us to sup-pose that the Northern Fortress one of the most interesting archaeological feature of the site had been func-tioning in 9th-13th AD and most probably was a palace of the local ruler. Analysis of finds discovered while sifting the filling of the Room I of the Northern Fortress has proved the information of the medieval Arab sources which described Al-Allaqi city as a center of caravan trade. Some aspects of physical health have been demonstrated by the results of the archeoparasitological analysis. Excavations at the Building 3 (Mosque) has revealed remains of the floor consisting of the grinded tuff and column (or arch) foot. One of the main achievements of the season 2020 was starting of the ethnographical field research of the Bisharin tribe living in the surroundings of the Deraheib. Field work at Deraheib during the third season has confirmed the high perspectives of the site for ar-chaeological anthropological and ethnographical studies.
