The present volume collects fifteen contributions presented during the first session of the International Congress Egyptian Archives / Egyptological Archives, held at the University of Milan on September 9-10, 2008.
Some of them are devoted to the grouping of documents that we call archives, but were not necessarely considered in the same way by the ancient Egyptians. Some others deal with different aspects of the true archives that Egypt left during more than four millennia of history, from the Third millennium BC down to the Coptic and Islamic Periods.
