I have always been fascinated by history of all sorts and especially ancient civilisations like Rome, Greece and Egypt. Today I have been reading about the discovery of a city built 3,400 years ago near Luxor during the reign of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. It looks from photographs to have been remarkably well preserved.
I vividly remember the feeling that I was walking with ghosts when my wife and I visited Pompeii a few years ago. I would love to see this city in person, but I wonder how long it will be until it opens to the public? To have lain undiscovered all this time, waiting to be brought back into the light, really is incredible.
I wonder what Indiana Jones would make of it?
