We are pleased to present a few interviews with Dr. Anastasiia Stupko-Lubczynska on the work of sculptors in the Chapel of Hatshepsut, on the work of an archaeologist, and more

This year’s activities of the Expedition, under the direction of Dr. Patryk Chudzik, were focused on the conservation and restoration work being carried out in the Hathor Shrine. As part of the protective work conducted, a rock-cut tomb, partially located under the Hathor Shrine, was assessed to gauge its state of preservation. Archaeologists who entered the tomb in 2021 discovered stone rubble on its floor. Among the rock chips, several hundred ancient objects were found, including dozens of votive offerings to Hathor.

Research undertaken by Dr. Anastasiia Stupko-Lubczynska on masters and apprentices carving the relief decoration in the Chapel of Hatshepsut was commented upon by the BBC World Service!

For about a decade, our team of draughts persons worked on the complete documentation of the reliefs in the Hatshepsut Chapel. Dr. Anastasiia Stupko-Lubczyńska analysed these scenes in depth, focusing on the techniques of making the relief, the organization of the sculptors’ work and their working conditions.
The article presenting the results of the research has been published open access in the top-ranking journal ‘Antiquity’

We are delighted to invite you to a lecture by Katarzyna Kapiec, entitled “The Southern Room of Amun – results of the study on its decoration and function in the temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari”.
