Updated

Bibliography

n/a

Re-formatted so that it is a list rather than a table, due to comments from users who found the table format awkward.

NB:
New references still need to be added, and the internal links from the main text to the bibliography are now broken as a result of the above change, and need to be fixed.

Geology

n/a

5th April 2004

Many thanks to Jan Van Cauwenbergh for pointing out that my Geology maps weren’t loading - this has now been fixed.

I have substantially added to the Palaeolithic section

Chronological Narrative

Prehistory

14/12/03

I am about to add extensive information to the Prehistory section so I have changed the way in which the material is organised. The section has been split into three sub-pages in order to improve navigation and reduce individual page size:  Palaeolithic, Epipalaeolithic and Mesolithic, and Early Neolithic

n/a

11/12/03

A new section describing the geology of Egypt

Geology of the Faiyum

Areas/Faiyum

Site Look and Feel

All

I have changed the look and feel for the site to make it more pleasent to use

Site Contents

All

23/10/03

I have removed nearly all of the Work in Progress pages.  These have not been shelved, and will be re-posted when I have completed them. The unfinished pages simply confused navigation and raised false expectations by appearing on the Menu.

Areas

Faiyum

23/10/03

I have added much more information to the Faiyum section and added a Western Delta section as well. Farafra will be next, in the Western Desert part of Areas.
