About ArchaeoTech

ArchaeoTech was founded by Hicham Sayegh, PhD, archaeologist and cultural heritage systems specialist. His work emerged from long-term urban archaeology in Beirut, where post-war excavation, regulatory supervision, collections management, and GIS-based synthesis required integration across scientific, administrative, and institutional layers. Over 25 years, this work evolved into a systems-based approach to cultural heritage governance.

Professional trajectory includes scientific direction of 28 excavations; national collections and heritage administration oversight; GIS integration of 208 excavation sites; ICCROM–ATHAR advanced training in conservation and risk management; PhD (La Sapienza, Rome) on urban landscape and cultural identity; research collaboration with Philipps-Universität Marburg.

ArchaeoTech reflects this accumulated experience: a shift from isolated excavation toward structured, accountable, and scalable heritage systems.
