Egypt

La arqueología hispalense conquista Egipto

ABC.es de Sevilla (Lola Rodriquez)

An article looking at Spanish archaeology projects in Spain, including the upcoming work planned for the funerary temple of Tuthmosis III and the ongoing excavations at the tomb of Djehuty. The Djehuty Project is now in its ninth season and has its own dedicated website with summaries provided in English (web pages) and Arabic (PDF document).

Pese a haber sido objeto de multitud de campañas arqueológicas a lo largo del siglo XX, el antiguo Egipto aún alberga enigmas por resolver. Las arenas del desierto esconden multitud de vestigios milenarios, auténticos tesoros para desvelar interrogantes clave de la historia. Los arqueólogos, ayudados por los avances de la ciencia, siguen teniendo un verdadero filón en la tierra de las pirámides y Sevilla bien puede presumir de contar entre las expediciones más punteras con dos importantes valores como Myriam Seco y José Miguel Serrano.
