I found this on Google Earth in Egypt, but what is it?

 

22°47'51.75"N 31°32'39.42"E

 

I at first thought it was a construction project, but I don't see any bulldozers or small foreman offices.

 

And I don't think sand dunes look like this.

I suspect that this is just a rock formation. Nothing more and nothing less.

You have to zoom in more.

No matter how much you zoom in it is still a rock formation.

Definitely looks like bulldozer marks. I did a bit of googling and found:

It looks like they were building irrigation reservoirs like at coordinates 22.80089,31.478651.

Without doing proper research, I suspect that the canal might have been planned on a straight path (leading past near your find), but had to be diverted for whatever reasons. It could be an abandoned site.

That's some good work, Lou.
