Siri Bezdicek
Ancient Egypt
is the first site to be discussed this month. Overall this site is
very attractive, well organized and well laid out. The only real
problem I have is that the index on the left is hard to read
because it has a dark background; however, when you pause your
mouse over the different items on the index, a box pops up with
the index item name. There is a wealth of information contained on
this site including a page on daily life, which includes
information on family life, marriage, food and cooking, housing
and furniture, and even cosmetics. There aren’t many pictures on
this site, but it is definitely worth a visit due to the
incredible amount of concise, easy to read information it
contains.
Next is a site titled WebHotep.com.
This is a very attractive site that offers an abundance of
information. Some topics include life in ancient Egypt, Gods, the
Myth of Osiris, and a section called The Complete Mummy. In
addition to these more common Egypt-related topics there are also
some less common topics offered such as the page on ancient games.
There are also quite a lot of pictures on this site to go with the
large amount of information. Webhotep.com is very well organized
and attractive and easy to navigate.
If you are seeking information on hieroglyphics, the next site
is for you. The site is actually titled Hieroglyphics
and as you can imagine, offers plenty of information on just that.
The information presented on this site goes more in-depth than the
information presented on many other sites’ sections on
hieroglyphics. Not only does this site offer a great deal of
interesting information on hieroglyphics, it is quite attractive
and organized with good graphics/illustrations of hieroglyphics
along with information that explains them.
Lastly this month is a site called
Indiana and Carolina’s Egyptian Adventure Guide. This site
offers practical and fun travel tips for people heading to Egypt.
The practical tips include such things as visa requirements and
health issues, while the fun tips include dining and
entertainment, and a page called "Say it in Arabic".
There is also a page of anecdotes and a page for women’s issues.
The site is well organized, easy to navigate, and pleasing to the
eye. The Egyptian Adventure Guide is a fun and informative site,
and even if you are not planning a trip to Egypt, you should still
definitely visit this site.
