A fascinating mixture of original Middle Kingdom decoration
overlaid by later work

  1. Hi Andie

    Awesome picture and I don't see any alien helicopters? I am half way through an article on the less than mysterious Abydos inscription and this picture is an interesting comparison piece.

    I have bookmarked it.

    Peace

  2. No, Tim - not a helicopter in sight! There was a lot of Ptolemaic work at the site which replaced the original Middle Kingdom building and decoration, of which I assume this is an example.
