The team, under the direction of Prof. Mona Haggag (University of Alexandria, President of the Archaeological Society of Alexandria), Dr. Kyriakos Savvopoulos (University of Oxford) and Professor Hussein Abd El Aziz, aimed at completing the work of Breccia by fully excavating and documenting the site, as well as restoring it into a modern, safe and fully functional and informative heritage site.

The project which also involved Egypt' s Ministry of Antiquities (supervision), the Cyprus Institute (digital documentation, 3D model creation) and the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (excavation, recording, study), was completed in 2023 and provided a complete picture of Hypogeum A, identified the monument’s ancient southern facade, and brought to light skeletons, and abundant portable finds in good condition.

After three years of systematic work, the Hellenistic necropolis of Shatby is now a modern archaeological park, unique of its kind in Egypt.
