Champollion, led the famous Franco-Tuscan Expedition to Egypt and Nubia (1828-1829), the basis for the study of ancient Egypt. In 1964 the Schiff Giorgini Collection was added to the <strong>Picozzi Collection<\/strong>. The Schiff Giorgini Collection consists of about four hundred objects of exceptional value, coming from the excavations conducted by <strong>Michela Schiff Giorgini<\/strong> in Sudan under the patronage of the University of Pisa. In 1968 the <strong>Ostraka collection from\u00a0Oxyrhynchus<\/strong> was added to the Egyptological Collection of the University of Pisa. This new collection consists of one thousand five hundred fragments of terracotta pottery (used in ancient times as a writing support), inscribed with demotic texts illustrating the life of a small oasis in Roman Egypt. The <strong>A. E. Breccia Archive<\/strong>, donated to the University of Pisa by the scholar&#8217;s wife in 1967, together with other material from private donations and material from excavations conducted in Egypt by the University of Pisa are also part of the Egyptological Collections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"it-IT\">All the objects that arrived with these donations were initially displayed in a room on the ground floor of Palazzo Ricci, in Via Santa Maria. In <strong>1994<\/strong> the Egyptological Collections were moved to the first floor of the palace in Via S.Frediano, 12, where they still are.<\/p>\n<p>From 16 July 2021, the Egyptological Collections are named after <strong>Edda Bresciani<\/strong>, Professor Emeritus of the University of Pisa, who passed away on 29 November 2020. Edda Bresciani was one of the world&#8217;s leading authorities on Egyptology: during her long academic career, she brought prestige and distinction to the University of Pisa through her outstanding scientific activity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" lang=\"it-IT\"><strong><span lang=\"en-US\">Breccia Archive<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" lang=\"it-IT\"><span lang=\"en-US\">The correspondence of Breccia has recently been reorganized and inventoried and can be consulted online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" lang=\"it-IT\"><strong><span lang=\"en-US\">Consult it<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" lang=\"it-IT\"><span lang=\"en-US\">For the consultation of the original documents and for more information, please contact:<\/span> Flora Silvano <span id=\"cloak60389\"><a href=\"mailto:flora.silvano@unipi.it\">flora.silvano@unipi.it<\/a><\/span> (+39) 050-2215579<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VIA ROMA 57, PISA<br \/>Visitabile su appuntamento<\/p>\n<p>Per informazioni<br \/>Servizi Educativi: 050-2213626 &#8211; educazione.sma@unipi.it<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 -
