The members of our team not only work in the field in Egypt but they frequently also study ancient Egyptian wooden objects preserved in international museums and research institutes. This allows them to undertake comparative studies with the material from the archaeological sites involved in the Medjehu Project and in addition broadens their general knowledge of woodcraft.
