Ancient Egypt
Resources
This Ancient Egypt website section has changed repeatedly over time to the point that it is hardly recognizable from its beginnings. A major overhaul was done in 2019. I decided to include this original resources page with permissions because the site contains some of the original photos, codes, and information.

Dear Ms. Miller,
Thank you so much for contacting me. As strictly an amateur
photographer, you honor me with your request. One of the things that I
hoped for when I posted my Egypt photos, was that young people could be
exposed to the beauty of this ancient civilization. Please feel free to
use any photos you would like. I'd love to see the kid's final work, so
please let me know when the webpage is up and running.
If I can be of further help, please let me know.

Hi Gay,
Yes, you may use them for educational purposes. I request that you give me a
tag line under each image. The tag line should link to my site. The HTML
looks like this:

with permission.
Good luck with your project, let me know when you win!
Richard

Hello Gay, and greetings from Zululand
I am familiar with the excellent ThinkQuest website, and have no problems
with you using the photographs for any purpose whatsoever.
Good luck, have fun, and please let me know how it goes.
