The main goal of the event is to unite the efforts of the academic community and expand our knowledge in the field, while presenting some results of the research related to the project. For this reason, it can involve a wide range of academics, researchers and scientists. It can be freely attended by museum specialists, experts, young researchers, postdoctoral students, PhD students, MA students and of course any person interested in the diffusion of Egyptian Cults in the Balkans. This topic allows the use of information from all kind of sources: archaeological excavations, written data, epigraphic and anepigraphic monuments – all with the potential to reinforce our understanding of the ancient cult practices in the region. We will discuss questions as the degree of worship of Egyptian deities in the Balkan lands, ways of penetration, ethnic and social characteristics of the adepts, distinctive features and / or types of statuary, epigraphic and numismatic material.
