Vulnerability archaeological site in Beni Hassan to Seasonal climate change and other hazards constitutes a critical set of interactions between climate and environment. The research indicates that both the amount and quality of data on preservation status of the archaeological surveys in the Beni Hassan. The objectives of this search are twofold: firstly, to demonstrate the importance of a long-term perspective on climate-environmental dynamics; secondly, to show the relevance of climatological data in impact to illustrate with a case study how one may identify the component processes of environmental change in archaeological areas.Evaluating regional impacts from possible climate change on archaeological areas requires a methodology to estimate extreme and short-duration climate statistics for the time period and the geographical region of interest. For historical conditions, climate change effects can be investigated by analyzing trends in long-term historical records of climate. For future conditions, projected changes in temperature and rainfall statistics are based on future scenarios in greenhouse gas emissions simulated in climate models or statistical extrapolation based on historical observations. The results show that at Eleven-year cycle time scales (sunspot cycle), Presence varied greatly in this region. Most of arid northern Minya was characterized by environments with dry to low wind energy.
