A great starting point for both general and educational interest is the Digital Egypt
for Universities website from University
College, London. A vast array of information is
presented in easy-access categories, such as Art & Architecture, Beliefs,
Technology & Industry and many more fields. You will find background
information, maps, artefacts, reconstructions and a bibliography.

Click on ‘English Version’. Click on ‘Site Map’ to view all pages. Osirisnet.net provides excellent
photographs of ancient Egyptian tombs from the Old to the New - Kingdoms,
with tomb plans, architectural features and wall scenes, accompanied by
descriptions.
HINT: Why not combine your internet searches by using Digital Egypt to
understand the wall scenes after studying a tomb on Osirisnct.net?

For members with a particular interest in the Old Kingdom the Oxford Expedition
to Egypt: Some Details Database is a new site that provides an easily navigated
database of all classes of ‘every-day life’ scenes from Old Kingdom tombs.
For the student it is a wonderful source of data, with a bonus of a complete
set of references.
More to come!
