CRE XI Preliminary Programme


The congress covers three days.
On Tuesday January 5th the congress will be opened in the National Museum of Antiquities (RMO). The registration of attendants will be followed by a keynote lecture by Dr. R.J. Demarée. Dr. Demarée is lecturer at the department of Egyptology and distinguished researcher on Deir el-Medina, the village inhabited by the workmen responsible for the construction of the tombs in the Valley of the Kings at Thebes. The so-called Taffeh-hall of the museum, complete with Egyptian Temple, will create the perfect ambiance for this opening keynote speech. Following the lecture, there will be an opportunity to see the museum's Egyptian antiquities. At the end of the day, attendees are invited for drinks in the Taffeh-hall.
