What encounters and conflicts linked ancient Egypt to the Sherden? The 12th edition of the Cultural Tourism Expo in Sardinia opens a window onto this story, waiting to be discovered and told, with "Egypt and the Sherden: Encounters and Conflicts in the Mediterranean."
In the afternoon, a discussion between Italy and Egypt on the implementation of the UNESCO Convention and the protection of cultural heritage will serve as a prelude to the presentation and inauguration of the exhibition, which can be followed live.
The archaeological exhibition continues the long-standing collaboration with the National Archaeological Museum of Naples and the ABAP Superintendency of Cagliari and Oristano. This year, the MAEC – Museum of the Etruscan Academy and the City of Cortona – will be joining the exhibition, under the aegis of Paolo Giulierini. The exhibition also features a comprehensive technology section, with exclusive new features commissioned by the Barumini Sistema Cultura Foundation.
The exhibition narrates a sea traversed by peoples, exchanges, and conflicts, bringing distant cultures closer together through the testimonies and beauty of their territories. The exhibition and conference continue the Foundation's work to foster collaboration between Italian and international museums, institutions, and archaeological sites.
Tune in from 4 pm to discover the exhibition and follow the inauguration.
