The Raymond and Beverly Sackler Distinguished Lecture in Egyptology and the Annual Egyptological Colloquium
Share this page
Since 1992, the British Museum has hosted an annual keynote lecture presenting the latest research on Egypt and Nubia. The lecture is made possible through the generosity of Raymond and Beverly Sackler.
The lecture is usually accompanied by a Colloquium on a related theme, with invited speakers from around the world. An overview of past lectures and colloquia provides a glimpse of how research on the cultures of the Nile Valley has developed in the last two decades.
Links are provided to those lectures and colloquia that have been published, whether online or in edited volumes.
