EgyRoot

The Nile is always a surprise. Like the sunsets. I saw the best sunsets of my life in Aswan. Sometimes, you don't even have time to get your camera.. others you just stare....can't move your eyes from the colors in the sky. Yes...paradise is here but sometimes, could be hell too.

"After the fieldwork, Archaeologists have still so much to do. Organise all the finds like pottery, glass, small finds, inscriptions and so on.
You need to do an inventory, its description, drawing, photographs, analise and compare the different kinds of clays used to make the pots, jars, vessels... and compared its forms, shaps, decoration to others with the help of a very good pottery typology book for classification.
Conservation and preservation is also something that you should take care of.
There is no indiana Jones or Lara Croft in all this... Just hard work, dedication and pleasure."
