Abstract

This research examines some Syrian copper objects exhibited in the Museum of Arab Lounge in the
Agricultural Museum in Cairo. These objects arrived at the museum during the rule of former
President Jamal Abed Al-Nasser (July 1961, when Egypt and Syria united in one country named The
United Arab Republic). These objects are six pieces that consist of two bowls, which have writings
and decorative inscriptions, two water buckets for carrying water with plants inscriptions, and two
trays; one with Koran verses, and the other has inscriptions of battles and wars. All pieces are
undated and there is no technical description of them. This research aims also at examining these
pieces, treating and maintaining them to clarify the inscription and decorative writings hide behind
corrosion compounds and, therefore, studying the possibility of identifying the age to which these
Syrian copper objects belong.
