Achievements to Date

System Population

EAIS System Population work consists of systematically covering all governorates in Egypt, creating a bilingual database and mapping all registered sites and listing unregistered remains. The database includes prehistoric, Ancient Egyptian, Graeco-Roman, Coptic and Islamic remains.

 The map shows the governorates covered by EAIS to date, and
 the areas that are currently being processed by the system.

Case Studies 

EAIS performs a number of case studies to highlight threats to archaeological and historical sites in a particular geographic location. The case studies help to raise awareness, and the results of the case studies can quickly be disseminated to local decision makers and other concerned parties. EAIS has successfully worked on case studies in several cities (such as Port Saïd and Alexandria), effectively focusing on 19th and 20th century architecture, often neglected and threatened. The EAIS case study on risk assessment and analysis in Luxor has produced several maps of the east and west banks, outlining risks threatening the sites.
