============================================
Dear colleagues & friends,
An initiative undertaken in the past few days by the Italian
Government is aimed at closing down the Istituto Italiano per
l'Africa e l'Oriente (IsIAO). To avoid such an eventuality, which
would spell the end of an institution that is unique in Italy and
which has been active at the international level in the fields of
archaeology, restoration and conservation of cultural assets,
scientific research and publishing for over 100 years, we are
launching the on-line subscription to an open letter addressed to
the President of the Republic. This letter will be available
on-line by Tuesday 24 June on the web site

<www.giuseppetucci.isiao.it> .

We hereby invite you to kindly sign (name, surname,
university/institution, country) this petition and also to ask
your colleagues to do likewise.

=============================================
