from Xenohistorian:

KUP, Chapter 6
by Charles Kimball

Recently Manfred Bietak, the archaeologist who is excavating ancient Avaris, reported the discovery of a room covered with Minoan frescoes, and dated it to the beginning of the XVIII dynasty; presumably this was a place where Minoan traders or ambassadors stayed, while visiting the main city of northeast Egypt.

And from another web search:

Helmi, Ezbet

Formerly called Tell el-Qirqafa. Amsterdam University survey of 1984 noted the presence of a quartzite block in the village, measuring 100 x (75+) x 17cm, pierced by a central square shaft. This site was probably the location of the Djadu of the 12th dynasty, found by Labib Habachi. Now the site is the focus of a major excavation by the Austrian Institute, working under cultivated fields some 800 metres west of their excavations at Tell ed-Daba. Major discoveries include Minoan wall paintings, an Eighteenth Dynasty palace, a Hyksos palace and water-supply system.
