I've reasherched, but I never really read it. Then, it got erased when my motherboard crashed. So, I didn't research very much after that. I also convinced my friend to try Nefertiti. The only reason she wanted to was because of the Mummy. I'm beginning to hate those movies! She knows nothing of Nefertiti or Egypt. All she cares about is finding Hamunaptra, which doesn't exist, or finding a mummy. She's really not interested in the culture. If I waste my time trying to get her info, she'll never read it! Does anybody else know of a royal woman that has a really interesting mystery like Nefertiti that's not as widely kown? |
How about Queen Tye. Or Queen Ahmose Nefertari.

Too late. I already chose Nefertiti, and my outline, and my draft. Besides, my friend did Cleopatra anyway. Now she acts like she knows more about Egypt than the entire school. Which isn't much, and I know more than her.

I searched for the book by M.W. Flinders Petrie on Amazon.com last night. That book, re-published in the '90s, costs upwards of 100 dollars. Some were 200, and they were from the 1980's. There weren't any of the first copy from the 1880s

That's even more than my mom's books! (She has to get expensive books for her job)

I went to Picadilly last night and they don't have great Egyptian books so I spent £100 on web programming books - oopsy.
Shall try the British Museum at the weekend.

Sounds like one of my books shopping sprees!
