Welcome to Pavements of Silver. This is a newly created site to split articles relating to Egyptian Archaeology away from my personal site. I have had an interest in Egyptian history ever since I was young, but have so far only studied the subject informally, through my own books and attending lectures, seminars, and short courses. I am hoping this year to begin to study formally at the University of London.

This site will cover news articles relating to Egyptian archaeology and I shall also post some of my own articles and insights, along with travelogues. Alas, for all the conspiracy fans out there, this site is dedicated to mainstream Egyptology and not the (admittedly amusing) alternative theories. Egyptian history is often bizarre enough on it’s own…

In time I am hoping to (finally) get my most recent travelogue uploaded along with some informative pictures on the following sites:

  • Giza Plateau
  • Saqqara
  • Dashur
  • Memphis
  • Abydos
  • Dendera
  • Karnak Temple
  • Luxor Temple
  • Seti Temple (West Bank)
  • Ramesseum
  • Dier El Medina
  • Medinet Habu
  • El Kab (Chapel and Tombs only, it’s a long story)
  • Edfu
  • Elephantine
  • Philae
  • Kalabsha
  • Abu Simbel

I hope that this site will keep you amused and entertained perhaps even informed, and that the gods shall be pleased with my efforts.
