No java on this page!! I figured the background would use up enough bytes! (Is this text too dark??)

Most, if not all of the links on this page, come courtesy of Mark Millmore's Ancient Egypt pages. They are my favourite by far. Beautifully done and chocabloc with info and interest (especially for children, I would think). Anyway, go straight there if you'd prefer, or follow the links I've taken from there.
