What is The Sussex Egyptology Society?
Formed on the 10th of September 1996, the Sussex Egyptology Society (SES)
grew out of an evening study course in Egyptology attended by about 30
enthusiastic amateurs.
Several of the students on that course still serve on the committee of the
society, which in the years since has grown into one of the major Egyptology
groups in the UK.
A
registered charity (No 1060748), the SES runs an outstanding annual
programme of monthly lecture meetings, attracting leading Egyptological
specialist speakers from the UK and overseas.
