Resource: Updates on OsirisNet

Thanks very much to Thierry Benderitter and Jon Hirst at OsirisNet for the latest news update, giving details of some new additions.

Dear list members,

We are pleased to announce the publication of three new or significantly updated pages on Osirinet:

* The tomb of Nefermenu, TT 365, is the first of a new presentation based on the site, called "A glimpse!". This name refers to very small tombs, or to others for which we have very few photographs. TT 365 has been chosen to inaugurate this new chapter because of it's common courtyard with the tomb of Nefersekheru. It's HERE :

* A major photographic update has been made to the tomb of Nefersekheru, TT 296, with some 100 new photographs. It's HERE :

* And an article devoted to bindweeds has been written. These plants are very often represented during the Amarna period, and again, during the Ramesside period. Their representations are very often overlooked by visitors, though they carry a high level of symbolism. Discover it in this document. It's HERE : http://www.osirisnet.net/docu/liseron/e_liseron.htm

Enjoy, and remember that we are always glad to read your comments.
