Linky Links
Sep. 16th, 2008 03:11 pmI've accumulated a bunch of bookmarks - time for a linky links posting! :)
From July 2008: Afghan secrets revealed on Google Earth: archaeologists use satellite photos to find and map sites.
From April 2008: Move over, Stonehenge: the sanctuary at Göbekli Tepe, in Syria, dated to around 9500 BCE.
From January 2008: Great Ancient City Unearthed in Syria: "Archaeologists say Brak was one of the earliest and largest cities in the region — and therefore the world. That assertion is shaking up Near Eastern archaeology, since scholars long assumed that the first substantial cities arose in southern Mesopotamia." And here's a picture.
APIS: Advanced Papyrological Information System
The 2007 blog of the Brooklyn Museum dig in the Temple Precinct of the Goddess Mut, Karnak concluded with images of women and goddesses from the site.
From 2004: Egyptian Lion Mummy Found in Ancient Tomb
From 2006: Egyptian Temple Yields 17 Statues of Lion-Headed Goddess
ETANA: Electronic Tools and Ancient Near East Archives
King Padibastet's Tomb - the Virtual Egyptian Museum
Also from 2006: Sex and booze figured in Egyptian rites
And from 2007: Where did I put that blade? Toolkit surfaces after 14,000 years
An odd little item from 2003 about The Cursing of Agade and the "miserable history" of modern Iraq.
What was Jiroft? Could the archaeological site in Iran be the lost city of Aratta?
