In these strange and difficult times when our meetings become exclusively virtual, we are pleased to announce that the ECE IX - Ninth European Conference of Egyptologists will still take place. Its leading theme Perspectives of Research has now become a topical and relevant issue for Egyptologists and archaeologists all over the world.

This new edition of the conference - organized in Italy for the first time - was intended to take place in Trieste in 2020, but the circumstances forced us to postpone it, turning it into an online event hosted by the Department of Humanities of the University of Trieste and co-organized by the Institute of Mediterranean and Oriental Cultures of the Polish Academy of Sciences.

The online conference will thus be hosted by the website www.ece9.it. There, participants will find the pre-recorded videos of both keynote lectures and presentations available for viewing from 21st through 26th June, as detailed in the attached conference program.

The website will be accessed only via a username and password, which will be given upon final registration at register.ece9.it. The registration to the conference is FREE of charge and must take place from May 10th to June 20th.

On Saturday 26th June, the meetings for discussing the papers will take place via Zoom. An invitation email with the links and passwords will be sent to all the participants the day before.

We hope this conference will be of interest to you and please feel free to share the news,
