The planned study aims at providing a contribution to the clarification of the art historic interdependence between the prospering ancient regions of the Arabic realm which laid beyond the limits of the Roman Empire (Arabian peninsula, Mesopotamia) and the Levantine areas, the Roman provinces of Syria, Arabia and Palestine (in Arabic geography the Bilad al-Sham). The chronological interval of research extends from the times of the Macedonian conquest (332 BC) until the rise of Islam (7th century AD). As a sector of the ancient art production, the metal sculpture is a convenient field because the preserved amount of documents is limited, the scientific investigation of comparable sculptural material out of stone and terracotta has proceeded during the past decades, and the evidence of the metal objects in terms of their technical fabrication may be estimated as rather promising. Due to the present political situation the documentation of the sculptural material cannot anymore be conducted; it has, however, been widely completed by Thomas M. Weber-Karyotakis during his travels and long stays in the region. Questions which can only been solved by autopsy may be answered in reviewing selected items preserved today in the collections in Europe or America. The technological aspects of the metal sculpture will be revealed by the close cooperation with Jacques Seigne who directed the French excavation of the Roman metal casting workshop in the premises of the Zeus sanctuary at Jerash. The thorough investigation of the preserved sculptural material out of metal requires the engagement of three specialist trained in the field of Classical Archaeology with profound experiences in the said geographic area (director of the project with Thomas M. Weber-Karyotakis as an involved scientist and additionally one scientific cooperator). The internationality and interdisciplinarity is given by the agreed cooperation with the French architect Professor Dr Jacques Seigne (Tours), with the Jordanian specialist in metallurgy Professor I. Lutfi Khalil (Amman) and as advisor Professor Dr. Gerhard Zimmer (Eichstätt), the leading German specialist on ancient casting technologies. Concerning the literary and epigraphic sources the French experts Prof. Dr. Pierre-Louis Gatier (Lyon), Prof. Dr. Maurice Sartre (Tours) und Prof. Dr. Julien Aliquot (Lyon) approved their support orally. Concerning the old-Semitic, especially the old south-Arabian votive inscriptions, the Jordanian specialists in this field, the Professors Dres Omar Ghul and Hani Hayajneh (both Yarmouk University Irbid) will cooperate.

这项计划中的研究旨在为澄清阿拉伯王国之外的繁荣古代地区（阿拉伯半岛、美索不达米亚）与黎凡特地区、罗马省份叙利亚、阿拉伯和巴勒斯坦（阿拉伯地理学中的 Bilad al-Sham）之间的艺术历史相互依存关系做出贡献。研究的时间间隔从马其顿征服时期（公元前332年）一直延伸到伊斯兰教兴起时期（公元7世纪）。作为古代艺术生产的一个部门，金属雕塑是一个方便的领域，因为保存的文献数量有限，对石头和赤土陶器的类似雕塑材料的科学研究在过去几十年里一直在进行，并且金属物体在技术制造方面的证据可以估计是相当有前途的。由于目前的政治局势，无法再对雕塑材料进行记录；然而，托马斯·M·韦伯·卡里奥塔基斯 (Thomas M. Weber-Karyotakis) 在该地区旅行和长期停留期间广泛完成了它。只能通过尸检才能解决的问题，可以通过回顾欧洲或美洲今天收藏的精选物品来回答。金属雕塑的技术方面将通过与雅克·塞涅（Jacques Seigne）的密切合作来揭示，雅克·塞涅曾指导法国对杰拉什宙斯圣殿内罗马金属铸造车间的发掘。对保存下来的金属雕塑材料进行彻底调查需要三位在古典考古学领域接受过培训、在该地理区域拥有丰富经验的专家的参与（该项目的主任，托马斯·M·韦伯·卡里奥塔基斯（Thomas M. Weber-Karyotakis）作为参与科学家，另外还有一名科学合作者）。国际性和跨学科性是通过与法国建筑师 Jacques Seigne 教授博士（图尔）、约旦冶金专家 I. Lutfi Khalil 教授（安曼）以及作为顾问的德国古代铸造技术领先专家 Gerhard Zimmer 教授博士（艾希施塔特）商定的合作而赋予的。关于文学和铭文来源，法国专家 Pierre-Louis Gatier 教授（里昂）、Maurice Sartre 教授（图尔）和 Julien Aliquot 教授（里昂）口头表示支持。关于旧闪米特语，特别是旧南阿拉伯的许愿铭文，该领域的约旦专家 Dres Omar Ghul 和 Hani Hayajneh 教授（均为伊尔比德耶尔穆克大学）将进行合作。
