The Egyptology Portal and other useful web sites

Egyptology Portal

The Egyptology Portal was made and maintained by Andie Byrnes. Andie is studying for a PhD at UCL (London, UK). Her subject is the origins and development of agriculture in Egypt. Her early research into the Faiyum area of Egypt has been captured at www.faiyum.historians.co.uk general information about the Egyptian Predynastic are at www.predynastic.com. Andie trained as a prehistorian and worked for several years as an archaeologist, engaged in both research and field (excavation and survey) projects, specialising respectively in the Upper Palaeolithic and Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age in northwest Europe. However, one cold wet cave and bounced cheque too many drove her into the business world where she have been working for the last 15 years in wireless, internet and other interactive projects. The Pharaonic period of Egypt has been an interest since childhood and Andie put her site together while studying for a distance learning course on Egyptology.
