   This whole set is really great; I wanted to leave a comment on almost every image but I think that putting a 'wow' under 100 images is a tad ridiculous so I'm keeping it to this one.

   It's awesome enough visiting these sites today - I cant even imagine what a sight like this would've felt like a hundred years ago.

   Just wow.

   Thanks for your comments on both flicks! It really is amazing how different these places look now. I was with one of our Egyptian curators reviewing some of these images the other day and he was talking about what had been excavated, how walls had been reconstructed in some areas, etc. Pretty fascinating. -shelley, manager of information systems, brooklyn museum

   All these images have the WOW factor I visted Egypt a couple of years ago and it blew me away at the pyramids to have seen it like this would have been amazing

   Hello, we would absolutely love any shots of archaeology in action for our group. Unfortunately this is not a field shot, so I must remove it from the group.

   viajando pelo egito através destas fotos, é estar viajando culturalmente, sendo que existem muitos segredos nesta cultura.

   Interesting.

   The pyramids must have been really something to see before their casing stones were removed by Cairo city builders.

    In the background is the Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), also known as the Great Pyramid.

    Amazing. I was just in Giza and it is breathtaking how much some things have changed. But of course, the pyramids and sphinx are the same!

    Many years ago the advanced technology existed and the civilization was so equiped with thecnology that, somehow some kind of disaster happened and then everything dissapeared but these buildings have been built from a very advanced and intellegnet people back before 3.5 thousand years ago.

    This is the most serene photo I have seen of the pyramid. It shows feeling, i.e. lonlieness, naturalness, fear, a big void. To me it shows a feeling that we all have at times. It also shows a feeling of being in a meditative mood. I really like this photo.
