News from the Valley of the Kings

Andie reports that Barry Kemp has issued an email circular asking for donations to help with repairs to the North Palace  Their needs are modest, just £2,800 in total, although I am sure that any more would be put to good use.  (Barry says in the newsletter - below - that the next project will be the Great Aten Temple.)  I have always said that I will not put adverts on News from the Valley of the Kings, but I am happy to promote donations to Egyptian missions.  Whenever Amarna comes up in our discussions, it is always very popular so I am not embarassed to say that I would be delighted if people made a small donation.  Since I am not working my own donation was small, but dozens of small donations would add up very fast.  You can find out more about the Amarna Project, and make a donation if you wish, here. They have also released the latest newsletter - Horizon No 8 which is also available from that link.

Oh, and Barry is about to head back to Amarna on Monday to resume work for the season!
