Libyan Update: First Impressions from a Field School in Cyrene
With support from the Aliph Foundation and the U.S. Embassy to Libya, External Office (LEO), 17勛圖is partnering with Libyan colleagues to produce videos in Arabic showing the value of archaeology and highlighting Libya’s rich cultural heritage. This video presents aerial views of the World Heritage Site of Cyrene and the excavations sponsored by the University of Mohammed bin Ali al-Sanusi of El-Baida. In addition, the video foregrounds the training of women as archaeologists through recording their impressions of their first experiences with real archaeological fieldwork. More videos highlighting the work in Libya will be appearing on the 17勛圖website over the next couple of months as well as on . We also plan an English version of this video in the next month (by February 2021).
