I had a chance at an advance viewing of Tutankhamun The Golden King and The Great Pharaohs yesterday afternoon, so departed from work about 1 and made my way to the Atlanta Civic Center's exhibit hall. ( The showing, favorite times, gift shop )
( Related photography exhibit at the Carlos Museum )
All this immmersion in ancient Egypt had me reaching for Andre Norton's Shadow Hawk as bedtime reading last night. That's placed well before Tutankhamun's time, I find, but still gives me a real feel for the culture. Or maybe it's that my many re-reads of Shadow Hawk back in the day established my fundamental beliefs about what the 'right' feel is.
