Known as one of the wonders of the world to students of ancient Egyptian archaeology, the Egyptian Museum is a repository of amazing objects and treasures. Who keeps track of it all? The Registrar training program was funded by ARCE. It’s purpose is to train people in how to account for the literally millions of priceless objects. They have even helped in recovering items that have been looted from the Museum.
