Welcome to the new ACRS community network

I'd like to welcome you on our new community network. As more and more people from all over the world recently joined the ACRS we had to improve our ways of communication. We already use different services you can find on the internet for free like Facebook and Twitter. But it was very important to us, to give the members a plattform where they can build their own universe. Now thanks to the ning-service which is also free of costs we are able to fullfill this vision. I hope that you can share your ideas, dreams & thoughts and get in touch with other members. Feel also free to invite friends & non-members to this network.

To be a full member of the ACRS just fill out the application form on our website (www.acr-society.org). And don't forget: Yes, it's FREE!

Dear Members,

We're currently finalizing the new ACRS Workspace, where you will be able to store any kind of information and data related to archaeology, ethnology, anthropology and other disciplines.

The Egyptian authorities have made progress in making it plain that smuggling antiquities will be dealt with severly. However, they struggle with the fact that population pressures mean that more and more land is pressed into cultivation, which…

I'd like to get involved more with the cause. ECHO (Egyptian Cultural Heritage Organization)seems to be making progress. I wonder how I can contribute???

I suppose the items must be from "old" collections, either sold or gifted to the auction house.Sadly, they don't have to reveal that in their sale catalog. I also suppose the authorities don't have the resources to investigae the…
