Ancient Egypt News for Thursday 17-12-09
Interested in becoming an Egyptologist? Paul Barford reports on what it is like to be an Egyptologist with his work at the Temple of Hatshepsut. He shows the less glamorous side of Egyptian archaeology. So I have included a couple of photos from the temple.

Egypt is wanting to attract more tourists from Turkey, a summary of the the three projects including developing Corniche el-Nile, the Karnak Ram Road and river anchor of tourist ships in Luxor.
