After its separation from the International Conference of Orientalists in Paris in 1973, the International Congress of Egyptologists (ICE) was held at intervals of three and four years, respectively.
To present at the International Congress of Egyptologists it is obligatory to be a member of the IAE. If you are not a member yet, you can join here.
