Having worked at Abydos, I just wanted to say that if you have the opportunity you should take it. The house isn't *that* primitive (hey, they even have wi-fi now), and it is a truly unique place to spend some time. Besides, entering information into the database may not be glamorous, but it IS an essential part of the work. ;-) Thanks again for the tour of Medamud!Amy Calverthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120375300787641572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6368980555997029494.post-59596695541224990602010-08-26T12:26:33.656+02:002010-08-26T12:26:33.656+02:00thank you Paolo that would fit as it was from the ...thank you Paolo that would fit as it was from the peristyle court.
