I am Ahmad,
archaeologist, egyptologist and tourguide
Having decided already in highschool to become an archaeologist, I have preserved my keen interest in Ancient Egypt even after years of doing excavations. Wondering what each site will bring still makes me feel full of awe and excited anticipation. A few years ago I was engaged in the excavation of eleven tombs that can be dated to the First Intermediate Period of Ancient Egypt (2181–2055 BC) - a good four thousand years ago!
Did you know
that some statues can be
read as hieroglyphs?

This one means Pharaoh "Ramesses II"
Hierogylphs are no
picture writing

The hierogylphs tell you their reading direction, mind the way they face

Literally it reads
"royal child of the sun"
Some signify sounds,
like an alphabet, others
concepts. The hare can signify "to travel"
Here they look to the right,
so you start from the right
