My interest was aroused from an early age due to a religous up bringing and a yearning to seek out its origins, which I believe stemmed from Egypt.

I finally travelled the length of Egypt in the 80's and from that time forward have been enlightened.

Hi Kozzol. I don't know what part of England you reside in but if you're anywhere near Cornwall, I have friends who own the Ancient Egyptian Centre. It's well worth a visit if you are able.

Thank you Meresankh,

It will definitely be on my visit list next time we are in cornwall, as we visit there quite often

I have already looked up their website and looks very interesting as well as Stuart and Anne.

You're welcome, Kozzol. Yes, Stuart & Anne are delightful people. Their website is still being worked on but it should be really good when it's finished.

Upstairs there are some mummies. Mummies are Stuart's speciality.

I fell in love with ancient Egypt in 3rd grade. I still remember that sultry afternoon when my History teacher told us about a civilization that buried treasures along with the dead, in the belief that they would need it in the afterlife. She then proceeded to show us photos of pyramids, which left me further dumbstruck!
Often times I wish I could go back to the wondrous day I heard about my dear, dear Egypt Smile

Tutankhamen's scoliosis was deemed "with-in the normal range" after his CT scan, King Tut Rocks.
Evidently, he was forced into his coffin, which was slightly small. This forcing of the mummy accentuated the appearance of the scoliosis.
To date, the cause of his death is listed as being due to infection, from a broken leg/knee-cap.

I started loving ancient Egypt when I first watched "the Mummy" Razz
