Great Places to Go:
www.KingTut.org - The exhibit "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" is back by popular demand! Through the official website you can buy tickets or official merchandise. Remember, proceeds will benefit restoration projects throughout Egypt!
KV 63 Official website - This is a chance to watch Egyptology history in the making! KV 63, the latest tomb to be discovered in the Valley of the Kings--notice Tutankhamun's is KV 62--is being cleared and studied right now. This site has great photos, links and updates from archaeologists working the site.
Amarna Research Foundation - Dedicated to restoration and research of the Tell-el Amarna site (formerly Akhetaten) and promoting interest in that time period. Has cool pictures of reconstructive models of the city.
Caroline Seawright's Egyptology Column - Great reference pages on deities and popular Egyptian topics.
Book of the Dead - A modern interpretation and not the original text, but still neat to read.
More links coming soon!
