Another glorious day in the Egyptian desert, stunning blue sky, arid, lovely. Hieroglyphics from the tombs. You know something s up when you seen the American Express sign on the door. More hieroglyphics . Horus , the sky god, man with a hawk's head.
Boats are big in the tombs, signifying the trip to the great beyond.
This looked absolutely awesome in the dim light beneath the tombs , but my lack of experience with the new digital camera really showed. On the left is Khnum , god of the annual flood on the Nile that brought life to all Egypt. This way to King Tut s tomb . Pictures from outside the Tomb of Menenptah . That s Khnum again, on the left.
