I have been gazing in AWE at this elaborate model of the city of Amarna that I found on the web. The detail makes me sigh and get all weepy.Oh to remember and return for a visit...

That is such a nice model. I would love to see it in person as I'm sure pictures don't do it justice. :)
Thanks for posting it.

For a few years now, I'm fascinated by Akhenaten and his era. You have probably seen some pictures of his millenary representations.

About the city of Aten, you can see a short video of the excavations here: http://www.mfa.org/egypt/amarna/excav/excav-5.html (see bottom of the page) - we can see the model of the city.

oh she is, she is (a handful). She's in her 'terrible twos' right now...we're hoping it's just that.;)
Totally independent. at two. yes.
and active as can be. we are assuming she will grow to be a rock-climber...or stunt-double or some such.
They will all visit this summer...I miss them. My nephew is still my heartsquashingangel, because i had more time to bond with him...but HE's growing WAY too fast. *sigh*

what site are you referring to?
By the way, I have not seen this Whale Rider yet...but I will keep it in mind on your mention.
be well,:)
much love,
D

It blew me away. For reasons only you will understand (to do with shamanic gifts etc that I hinted at in INFO I saw such parrallells between the girl, the culture and my own relationship with my father ~
who I have started receiving synchronous visions from lately and tried to express in [livejournal.com profile] electric_poetry

are you added your end to electric_poetry as I'm about to delete those who aren't....

Love

Liz
