About the project

Tell Fecheriye is situated in Northeast Syria. Since 2005, a German-Syrian research project has been conducting excavations at the mound. In order to present the team’s results to a wide audience, we were asked to design the official website and logo.

Our main goal was to present the extensive archaeological data in a clearly-arranged way, so that specific information could be easily located throughout the website in German, English, and Arabic.

Additionally, a complete project bibliography is given, and each of the website’s articles is downloadable as a PDF file in German, English, and/or Arabic.

An overview of the site is offered through an interactive map, and the scientific data is enriched by numerous pictures of the excavation and its participants.
