The project TECH aimed to document an Egyptian monument for Egyptological studies and researches but, at the same time, to check new methodological opportunity for conservation, valorisation and enhancement. In particular, the CNR mission has focused the attention on the tomb of Harkhuf, a high official of the VI dynasty (XXIII century BC), who led trading and military expeditions into Nubia. The hieroglyphic texts inscribed on the façade of his tomb are very important and famous documents. The team has checked an integrated methodology. Photogrammetry has been used to generate an accurate 3d model and to facilitate the epigraphic work. Moreover climatic measurements have been carried out.

Abstract
The project TECH aimed to document an Egyptian monument for Egyptological studies and researches but, at the same time, to check new methodological opportunity for conservation, valorisation and enhancement. In particular, the CNR mission has focused the attention on the tomb of Harkhuf, a high official of the VI dynasty (XXIII century BC), who led trading and military expeditions into Nubia. The hieroglyphic texts inscribed on the façade of his tomb are very important and famous documents. The team has checked an integrated methodology. Photogrammetry has been used to generate an accurate 3d model and to facilitate the epigraphic work. Moreover climatic measurements have been carried out. Finally the data have been crossed in order to check the environmental impact and the decay.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
