World Heritage Map

It's a slow time of year for Egyptology news, so here's a little something just slightly off topic, for those of you who are interested - a complete map of the World Heritage sites, including those in Egypt, is available either electronically in PDF format, or in print (free of charge) at the above web address:
"This large format full-color map features the 812 World Heritage sites and brief explanations of the World Heritage Convention and the World Heritage conservation programmes, as well as superb photos of World Heritages sites with explanatory captions.
The dimensions of the map are 58 cm by 89 cm (23 in. by 35 in.), and it can be downloaded below. If you would like to receive a free printed map, please register on the World Heritage website with your name and address and to specify your preferred language (English, French or Spanish) at this address:http://whc.unesco.org/en/register/".
