Egypt, the centre of civilisation, art, and culture, offers its unique site
neighbouring the Pyramids of Giza as a genius loci for such a cultural and
architectural challenge that best addresses the world's Third Millennium and
Egypt's Seventh Millennium. A strong visual linkage between the new museum
site and the Pyramids themselves suggests architectural choices that will
not waste the possibility of establishing a formal dialogue.

The competition is organized in two phases. Phase one will begin May 2002
and end August 2002. The jury will select only twenty entrants who will
pass on to the Second Phase. The Second Phase will begin November 2002 and
end March 2003. The final winning projects in the Second Phase will be
announced during the month of June 2003,

The competition is open to all architects or teams led by architects with
documentary evidence of their qualifications to practice architecture in
their own country, or in the country of their residence, and therefore are
authorized to take part in architectural design competitions at the date of
registration for this competition.
