ARCE was
established to support archaeological work in Egypt; while its
activities have expanded over the years to encompass other forms
of scholarly research, archaeology remains a primary area of
focus of ARCE's member institutions.
Expeditions
often involve large teams of researchers, necessitating complex
logistics in moving and housing personnel and equipment. The
Cairo Center bears primary responsibility for maintaining expedition
permits and concessions and for support operations in moving
member institutions' expeditions in and out of the country.
Recent and upcoming
seasons of affiliated expeditions are listed below.
