Institut français d’archéologie orientale (IFAO)

IFAO (Institut français d’archéologie orientale) in Cairo is one of the major French research center abroad and falls under the aegis of the Ministry of Education (National, Higher and Research). The institute’s mission is to study the successive civilizations of Egypt from prehistory until the modern era. The disciplines involved are archaeology, history, and language studies; excavation sites of the IFAO cover all eras (prehistory, Pharaonic Egypt, antiquity, the Islamic period) and are situated throughout Egypt (Nile valley, Delta, oases, Eastern and Western Desert, Sinai and the Red Sea); and research is often multi-disciplinary. The publications concern archaeology, philology, history, history of art, religion, from prehistoric to modern and contemporary periods with specific attention given to works relating to excavations and unpublished studies, and some thematic studies dealing with architecture and society.
