The blog aggregates news about publications, activities, etc. related to Egyptian/Arabic scholarship in the field of Greco-Roman studies and thus seeks to challenge the Eurocentrism prevalent in the field. It aims also at directing the attention to relevant materials from modern nonacademic/public contexts; roughly from 1798-to the present. The news comes mainly from Egypt without excluding other Arabic countries.

Black Athena of Martin Bernal into Arabic
The controversial book of Martin Bernal, Blak Athena:The Afroasiatic Roots of Classical Civilization, with its first two volumes published in 1987 and 1991, is turned into Arabic by Egyptian classicists. Both the Martin Bernal's response to his critic, Moore, David Chioni (editor). Black Athena Writes Back: Martin Bernal Responds to His Critics. (2001), nor the third volume which dealt with The Linguistic Evidence, published in 2006, have not yet been translated into Arabic.
The book was published by the NCT in 1997 (Vol. I) and Vol. II in two parts; part 1 in 2004 and part 2 in 2005.
