Cultural heritage in the crosshairs : protecting cultural property during conflict /

: The protection of cultural property during times of armed conflict and social unrest has been an on-going challenge for military forces throughout the world even after the ratification and implementation of the 1954 Hague Convention and its two Protocols by participating nations. This volume provides a series of case studies and "lessons learned" to assess the current status of Cultural Property Protection (CPP) and the military, and use that information to rethink the way forward. The contributors are all recognized experts in the field of military CPP or cultural heritage and conflict, and all are actively engaged in developing national and international solutions for the protection and conservation of these non-renewable resources and the intangible cultural values that they represent.

Rocks of ages : developing rock art tourism in Israel /

: This volume presents the findings of an interdisciplinary project aimed at safeguarding the future of this unique resource. Cultural heritage in the Negev desert region of Israel is potentially under threat from a number of social, political and economic activities such as militarization, settlement and tourism, resulting in significant environmental change. The cultural heritage and archaeology extend back at least a quarter of a million years but also include a unique engraved rock art assemblage that dates to at least 3000 BCE. These engravings form a clear association with other relic monuments including prehistoric and protohistoric settlements, agricultural and irrigation regimes, and the remnants of a nomadic way of life.

SCRIBE : The Magazine of The American Research Center in Egypt : Fall 2023 | ISSUE12

: Updates on excavation, conservation, and research projects developing across Egypt Dr. Louise Bertini Executive Director ARCE in action on our 75th year W elcome to the new issue of Scribe magazine! We hope you had a great summer and are now ready to hear the latest interesting news about ARCE’s ongoing work in Egypt and about our plans for the final months of our 75th anniversary. Over the last six months, ARCE staff, officers, members, and our partners have been organizing and hosting events, developing our library and online resources, and working with excavators, academics, conservation experts, officials, and heritage management teams from Egypt and around the world. In May, we hosted our 74th Annual Meeting in the Minneapolis Marriot City Center hotel and conference venue, followed the weekend after by the virtual online conference. Both events were very successful. In addition to a slate of outstanding presentations, attendees were treated to special panel sessions and an exclusive museum workshop entitled ‘Engaging Egypt and Africa in Museum Settings’. The keynote address was a joint presentation by Dr. Betsy Bryan and Dr. Fayza Haikal, who recounted deeply personal stories in their talk entitled “Women in Egyptology: Long Career Reflections”. This was delivered at the magnificent Minneapolis Institute of Art and surely left a lasting impression on all who were in attendance. Next year, the 75th annual in-person meeting will take place in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, from April 19th to 21st at the Omni William Penn hotel. In Egypt, ARCE hosted the Cultural Property Protection conference with delegates attending from Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Yemen, Algeria, Libya, Tunisia, Morocco, and Palestine. This was made possible thanks to generous funding from the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, in partnership with the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities (MoTA), the Council of American Overseas Research Centers (CAORC), and the US Department of State. The conference focused on “Sustainable Documentation and Inventories Management” and ended on a promising note where recommendations were drafted based on more than thirty presentations by regional experts. Rec- ommendations included the formation of an “Arab World Heritage” network, increasing collaboration through regional joint projects, and the development of regional training initiatives.
