RESPECT
We come from the desert.
(Syria)
Our deepest roots lie in desert civilizations. Arid environments are an integral part of our DNA, having been raised in Palmyra Syria, then developed in the writings of Jordanian and Saudi nomads.
SHARING
We believe that culture is the bond
that joins people together.
That’s why we believe our discoveries should be shared and passed on.
And that’s why we offer heritage preservation tools (digital or physical) to give these cultures a means of protecting this common identity.
INNOVATION
We believe in innovation
to speed up our work.
We believe in the latest technologies.
We believe in cross-fertilization to innovate and find new approaches.
We believe that archaeology must look forward to desirable futures.
