According to the character map on my computer, I don't have a hieroglyphic font installed. So I wonder how I can see that.

Book 412
Egyptian Hieroglyphics: A Self-Study Manual Based on the Art Monuments
Patrick F. O’Mara, Ph.D
Paulette Publishing 1974
I think the idea was to learn to read Egyptian hieroglyphics. I had heard some pretty negative things about the Wallis Budge books, so instead I got this. It appears to be a self-published class syllabus, and it seems to be a pretty good one, too. With numerous plates based on the writings on actual monuments, three quizzes, and even a final exam, it seems to be a fairly good introduction. Maybe one of these days.

Ceiling and imagery of the Tomb of the Vineyards, burial of Sennefer, Mayor of the Southern City, Thebes, during the 18th dynasty of Egypt.
Photos taken by me, August 2023
It’s hard to tell which way is up and down when walking through the tunnel leading from the surface into the tomb. Before entering the main chamber there is a small antechamber whose ceiling is quite low, and then a shallow arch which leads to the main room depicted in the above photographs. Both chambers contain a good deal of paintings, however the main chamber holds the most numerous and well preserved paintings, of course. Besides the ceiling, everything is encased in glass.

Dendera Temple Complex : Egypt My mother had made the decision to travel to Israel, Jordan and Egypt. It has been a life long pilgrimage for mum. She was soo disappointed when this opportunity came up, COVID hit. Eureka this time the trip went off without a hitch. So of course I asked to share some of her photos of the trip. Some not so clear as they taken on her iPhone

Scenery and imagery from the Hathor temple at Dendera, built in the Greco-Roman period
photos taken by me in August, 2023
Some parts of this temple, when I visited, were off limits. However it was very hard to distinguish what was and wasn’t off limits, so my companion and I wandered everywhere. We also bought passes to the different hidden chambers of the temple; well worth the price in my opinion. You descend or ascend cramped, steep stairs to get to seemingly secret and certainly hidden tunnels filled with vivid imagery of the Gods and worship. Unfortunately, the Dendera calendar filled with zodiacs, has been stolen and replaced with a black cast of what it once was. The original now rests in a museum in Europe.
