Syrian Heritage Archive Project

With regard to density and the historical importance of its heritage sites, Syria’s cultural landscape belongs to the world’s most exceptional regions. As Syria today looks back on a human occupation through archaeological and historical sites dating from about one million years ago right up to the Ottoman Period, it harbours one of the world’s most comprehensive and long-lasting cultural heritage records, which in large parts yet remains to be explored by scholarly research.

The Archive of Friedrich W. Hinkel

The archive of Friedrich W. Hinkel represents one of the largest collections of research materials concerning the archaeology of the Ancient Sudan. It is the result of Dr. Hinkel's (1925 - 2006) over 40 years of continued research, beginning with his participation in the Humboldt University's excavation at Musawwarat es Sufra in 1961. From 1962 onwards he was deputized by the Academy of Sciences of GDR to the Sudan's Archaeological Service, for which he worked as an architect focusing on the excavation, reconstruction and conservation of archaeological monuments.

Bequest of Friedrich Rakob

Friedrich Rakob’s bequest includes a total of more than 63,000 photographic negatives, slides and contact prints as well as around 190 crates and folders containing excavation diaries, drawings, plans, VHS cassettes and other documents, such as preliminary reports, texts of speeches and letters from his 35 years of research work. Some of these materials were presented to the DAI during Rakob’s research activities, while others were bequeathed to the institute after his death in 2007. The most extensive part of the holding is the documentation of the excavations and finds from Chimtou and Carthage.

African Archaeology Archive Cologne

For over fifty years, archaeological research in Africa has been done at the Institute of Prehistoric Archaeology at the University of Cologne. In addition to the rock art research started in Namibia in 1963, Northeastern Africa established itself as a second focus region in the early 1980s - both areas that had been largely "terra incognita" of prehistoric research until then.
