Institute for History and Archaeology

Granting to the cultural dimension of development the importance it deserves, results in the idea of creating an Institute for History and Archaeology, carrying the mission of restoring, preserving and developing Tyre's cultural heritage.

University chairs would grant to this institution its full Mediterranean dimension. International Universities, whose services have been called upon, could primarily send groups of researchers and publish the results of their findings. An agreement has been done with the LAU (Lebanese American University).

Equipped with a modern infrastructure, namely an information system, laboratories specialized in reprography, audiovisual equipments, this Institute is in a position to offer all the modern tools required for the training of specialists in the field of cultural heritage.

The Institute will be accessible to all researchers looking forward to specialize in subjects such as history, archaeology or old languages.
