01 — About

Who we are.

The Society has undertaken a wide range of archaeological surveys and excavations and has supported numerous other heritage projects with grants. Many were launched as rescue missions to record and preserve sites and monuments under threat from agricultural and urban expansion. The records from several of these excavations are now housed in the Society’s archive and may be publicly consulted. A key part of our programme is bringing such excavations to publication.

By joining the Society, you are supporting our diverse fieldwork and publication programme. Members receive an annual hardcopy of our Sudan & Nubia journal, as well as periodic e-newletters and access to discounted tickets for our biannual events. Members also receive discounts on image permissions from the archive and on the Society’s monographs.

The Society was founded to promote interest in Sudan’s cultural heritage and to raise awareness of its important place in the history of mankind. Since its inception, the Society, in collaboration with the National Corporation for Antiquities and Museums Sudan, has engaged in projects that respond to threats posed to Sudan’s unique and irreplaceable cultural heritage through thousands of years of human history.
