As ARCE enters its 70th year, please help support our mission of fostering knowledge of Egyptian cultural heritage and preserving its historic monuments and archaeological wonders:
In Alexandria, the remains of an ancient Roman villa are preserved and open to visitors by ARCE. One of the stunning floor mosaics depicts a variety of bird species and is the namesake of the home. >>
A Napoleonic fort in the Red Sea harbor town of Quseir is restored and converted into a visitor center. The center pays homage to the diverse history of the fort since its founding by the Ottomans. >>
The fields of construction and preservation come together in this project to excavate and document the invaluable archaeology and monuments residing under the modern streets of Cairo’s ancient core. >>
Join the ARCE Annual Meeting! One of the largest gatherings of Egyptologists and enthusiasts in the world where scholars and expedition leaders present their latest project updates. >>
