The Colossi of Memnon and Amenhotep III Temple Conservation Project directed by Hourig Sourouzian aims to preserve important remains of the temple of Amenhotep III, which has been destroyed by an earthquake in antiquity, used as a quarry and abandoned. Over 25 years of salvage archaeology and the re-erection of monuments have considerably revived important parts of the temple and enriched our understanding of this reign.
Since 2025, I am the co-director of the project which is coordinated now cooperatively between the JGU Mainz and DAIK.
