ONLY FOR EGYPTIAN PARTICIPANTS:
The International Association of Egyptologists (IAE) will subsidize the registration fees of younger Egyptian scholars who will
present papers at the Congress. These include M A graduates, PhD students, junior inspectors or m useum em ployees, and
academ ics at the level of Assistant Professor or University Lecturer. Depending on the num ber of such scholars who will atten d,
the IAE m ay be able to subsidize all or a part of their registration fees. Note that only IAE m em bers are allowed to present
papers at the Congress. All Egyptian colleagues who wish to take advantage of this subsidy m ust also be m em bers of the IAE.
Egyptian colleagues will be able to pay the pre-registration fee as well as IAE m em bership dues at the Congress itself due to
the difficulty of international paym ents from Egypt. Egyptian colleagues who wish to take advantage of the subsidy are
required to notify the General Secretary (secretary@ iae-egyptology.org) before April 30 th , 2015 of their intention to attend the
Congress. This will help the IAE judge the am ount of support requested.

ACCOMMODATION IN FLORENCE
The ICE XI Organizing Committee has decided to make available to the congress' registered delegates only, a specific and
exclusive channel to book their accommodation, as well as other parallel activities, at a very special price.
Florence Congress Booking is the official conference reservation system of Florence, realized by Firenze Convention Bureau and used by national and
international associations to offer their conference attendees a safe and convenient way to book their stay in Florence. When you stay outside the official housing
hotels, you miss out on a big part of the annual meeting experience and networking opportunities with your colleagues. Thanks to our numerous partnerships and
premium relationships with most of the hotels of the city, we are able to guarantee the best available room rates and reservation policies.
After completing the registration and payment process ask the SECRETARY for the Conference Accommodation
Booking Code (CABC) to enter in the conference reserved area and get the best rates offered for the conference at:
www.florencecongressbooking.com
FLORENCE CONGRESS CARD
The Florence Congres Booking system has also made available for the ICE XI a special Congress Card that will give the participants
access to a variety of offers and special deals around the city. Follow this link to download the Congress Card for free (requires a
brief registration).

By request, a CHILD CARE SERVICE, in collaboration with the Istituto degli Innocenti, will be available for the delegates at an extra
cost.
