Giza did it for me, not much to see, but the enormity was overwhelming
The nearby 'Workmans tombs' were exquisite
Th star of the show was 'The Cachette' in Luxor - an underground store-room that had been uncovered by a builders dumper truck which had driven over it and had broken through into a room that had lain untouched for millenia
Where we had been used to seeing artifacts that had been damaged by time, or by The Copts deliberately defacing them, here was a room full of relics that might have been a week before
I have to admit that I walked around the exhibition with tears running down my face - a lump comes to the throat remembering it
