Re-encountering the wonderful Nebamun tomb paintings in my stroll around the British Museum yesterday. This fragment depicting herdsmen and cattle is among my favourites. #ancientegypt #arthistory #egypt #egypt ology #painting
So many tasty layers of discussion here!

I always love seeing this little piece of #Egyptomania in #Brixton . UK fashions for Egyptianising architecture came in waves, with a big one arriving in the 1920s following the discovery of #Tutankhamun ’s tomb.

More new discoveries in #Egypt . I love that in this temple to a #Greek goddess you also find objects depicting traditional #Egypt ian symbols such as the udjat eye and djed pillar. A glimpse of the multiculturalism of late pharaonic history. #archaeology #egyptology
Such a fantastic evening in support of The Egypt Exploration Society! 😃📚 #heritage #egypt ology #egypt #bookshop #bookreading

I’m thrilled to be joining this tour in January as resident expert! It was inspired by one of my courses at The Egypt Exploration Society and I was honoured to be asked to lecture on it (ticket prices include a donation to the EES) #egypt ology #queens #goddesses #egypt wetravel.com/trips/queens-a…
I was honoured to be invited to the residence of H.E. the Egyptian Ambassador to the UK, in celebration of #Egypt ’s National Day. A joy to represent The Egypt Exploration Society among such distinguished attendees - especially when there’s koshari! Also spotted: a familiar EES-excavated face…
