Subject: Temple of Ramesses II in Abydos
I am the co-director of New York University's project of the temple of Ramesses II in Abydos, Egypt. Ogden Goelet is the other co-director. The project has completed thus far three field seasons from 2008 through 2010,and we are currently preparing for the 2011 season which is scheduled for December 1, 2010 to January 15, 2011. A complete architectural and photographic record of the temple has been completed and we are currently working on the epigraphic record. During the upcoming season we plan to produce a conservation plan for the temple, and prepare suggestions for specific techniques and supplies. This will entail producing 1) condition report of the various sections of the temple; 2) Damage mapping record. Please let me know if there is any one with experience that fits our project and would be interested in joining our next expedition on December 1, 2010.
