Welcome to the Egyptology News archive
Introduction to Egyptology News
This blog was set up in 2004 to aggregate news about Egyptology and related topics from online sources on a regular basis. It was closed finally in September 2013 due to other commitments. It has been left open as an archive, but comments have been disabled.

A bit of a dumb question, but what are those wonderful white formations made of? Are they made from eroded salt? Or a kind of rock? Looks very otherworldly.
ps I love this blog and the daily Egypt fix it brings.
Hello there
It obviously wasn't a dumb question because I received several emails asking me the same thing :-).
I've posted a short explanation on the blog today. It seems like a very mundane description for something so alien! http://egyptology.blogspot.com/2007/08/farafra-oasis-daily-photo-explanation.html
I am very glad that you like the blog - I started it precisely because I liked to home my daily dose of Egypt.
All the best
Andie
