Ancient Egyptian Architecture Online (AEGARON) - Illustrated Standardized Terminology

描述历史建筑的术语影响着我们对古代建筑环境的感知和理解。古典建筑术语在描述古埃及建筑时使用不一致，导致术语模糊和大量误解。背负着一个“不适当的”术语，生物学需要标准化的术语，并通过描述和插图来限定它们。这是通过思考建筑元素在建筑空间中的结构和功能，它们的区域和时间差异以及它们在古埃及建筑整体发展中的重要性来实现的。Aegaron项目是由位于开罗的德国考古研究所和位于洛杉矶的加州大学之间的NEH-DFG资助的合作项目，是这方面的理想平台。Aegaron开发了一种新的方法来制作和处理历史建筑的计划，现在将提供一个深思熟虑的控制词汇表，由古埃及建筑细节的地理参考，注释图纸和照片表示。该项目将于2013年6月1日至2015年5月31日运行。

Terminology to describe historic architecture has an effect on our perception and understanding of the ancient built environment. Classical architectural terms have been used inconsistently to describe ancient Egyptian buildings, resulting in a fuzzy terminology and an abundance of misunderstandings. Saddled with an “inappropriate” terminology, Egyptology needs to standardize the terms and qualify them through descriptions and illustrations. This is best done by thinking through the construction and function of architectural elements in the built space, their regional and temporal differences, and their importance in the development of ancient Egyptian architecture as a whole. The Aegaron-project, the previous NEH-DFG funded cooperation between the German Archaeological Institute in Cairo and the University of California in Los Angeles, is the ideal platform for this. Aegaron has developed a new methodology for the production and handling of plans of historic architecture, and will now provide a well thought out controlled vocabulary represented by georeferenced, annotated drawings and photographs of architectural details from Ancient Egypt. The project will run from June 1, 2013 to May 31, 2015.
