I found the link for the Hatshepsut story just now, I've been checking since you first told us about the story. She is one of my favorite ladies.

no,i just think that these are the most interesting because they have the most to talk about. they all belong on this forum, save maybe 'intelligent design', as they involve archaeology from all angles and points of view.
