The First Project in the Programme began
in the year 2001; with the documentation
of some 1087 medical manuscripts in the
collection of Egypt’s National Library.
Two editions of the work were issued;
one in book form, and the other a CD.
The book (in Arabic, English and French)
contained a selection of the most
important manuscripts; with related
details on both the subjects and the
authors. This is in addition to tables
containing detailed information on the

The Arts Heritage Documentation
Due to the progress of the information technology and especially in the field of
Multimedia, it is becoming evident that using this technique will be of a great
benefit in handling our Arts Cultural Heritage. CULTNAT conducted several
national programs and projects aiming at preserving, disseminating and promoting
the Egyptian Arts Cultural Heritage.

Photographic Memory of Egypt
The photographic heritage program is an ambitious undertaking as it documents
Egypt's intangible cultural heritage through photography. The program's primary
activity is to digitize the archives of photographers [foreign and Egyptian] from the
Nineteenth and early Twentieth-century
The collections of photographers work, gathered from local and international
museums and private collectors, will be published as CD-ROMs and books. The
program aims to make such rare collections available for researchers, curators, and
vintage photograph enthusiasts via multiple means of publication, which includes
paper publication and on the internet.
Future activities include creating an online photographic heritage searchable
database of these photographic collections, which will be accessible to researchers
and the general public.
The program will also create a Conservation and Preservation Laboratory for original
photographs, providing important services to collectors and institutions.

Folkloric Heritage Documentation
Knowing the importance and value of the varying themes of the
Intangible heritage in general and the realizing the richness of
the Egyptian Folklore in particular, the Folkloric heritage program
evolved in CULTNAT.
The program documents, in a database compilation process,
different aspects of the historical daily life that are about to
become extinct all over Egypt, and specially in places like Fatimid
Cairo, Sinai, the Oasis , Quena and Aswan.
One of the projects within this program is the documentation of
different crafts in Egypt. Some of the documented crafts are the
khayameya (tent makers), cupper crafts, bookmaking, carpentry,
etc. Aside from documenting those crafts in audio visual and text
forms, CULTNAT is in the process of issuing a book about the
crafts in Cairo. We are also working with the UNESCO in
developing a website for all the Mediterranean crafts.
Taking another side of the Egyptian daily life, the Folkloric
Program is also documenting the different occasions and how
people celebrate them, whether they are religious or social
events.
