The Abydos South Project

The Abydos South Project

 

The Abydos South Project is committed to positively contributing to our constituent communities and to being responsible caretakers of south Abydos.

Given the great privilege to work with Egypt’s precious cultural heritage, our primary priority is to protect the site for the benefit of future generations.

The ASP is committed to the highest standards of archaeological excavation, conservation, site management and research, to thorough record-keeping, and to sharing our data with the wider community to enhance our shared understanding of Egypt’s deep history.

The ASP is dedicated to providing opportunities for Egyptian archaeological professionals to develop and employ their skills.

We seek to create opportunities for students of all nationalities to learn new skills and advance their scholarly careers.

The ASP is also committed to providing economic value to the local communities of Arabet Abydos, Beni Mansour, el-Ghabat, and Al-Balya
