Mitteilungen des Deutschen Archäologischen Instituts, Abteilung Kairo
Since 1930 the annual communications of the Cairo Division have been providing an international platform for papers on Egyptian archaeology and cultural history. The topics treated cover a time span from the pre-dynastic period through the Christian era and up until the Islamic period. Besides the emphasis on archaeology and the publication of the latest results of excavations by international consortia, topics from art history and cultural history to topical questions and research are discussed. In addition, reports on the current excavations of the Cairo Division are presented regularly, supported by copious pictorial material.
This commemorative volume, published by the Cairo branch of the German Archeological Institute (DAI), is dedicated to Werner Kaiser, who died in 2013 and had managed the affairs of the Cairo office for 22 years. His work advanced research in Egyptology, and also set a new path in archeological and conservational work. This volume collects essays by many of his colleagues and students who were permanently influenced by Kaiser’s thought.
