Welcome to SPARC
The Society for the Preservation of Ancient Religious Culture
WHO WE ARE
Our Mission
SPARC is a non-profit organization made up of scholars, archeologists, students and business/community leaders dedicated to the preservation of ancient religious cultures around the Middle East, including those cultures found in Egypt, Israel, and Jordan (among others). Through the generous support of our donors and the on-the-ground work of our teams, we are supporting research that increases our understanding of these beautiful artifacts and monuments. We are doing the work that protects and conserves them through proper excavation, conserving artifacts in a long-term and sustainable way, and preparing a new generation of scholars who can further the mission of SPARC for generations to come.
