It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact.
Beautiful pcs
The show is truly marvellous. Even today, when there has been so many years since I watched it, I can still remember how deeply it touched me.
For those interested in ancient Egypt, I'd like to recommend a book which was written in 1945 by Mika Waltari. The Egyptian (Sinuhe egyptiläinen) is set in Ancient Egypt, mostly during the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten of the 18th Dynasty, whom some have claimed to be the first monotheistic ruler in the world.
The protagonist of the novel is the fictional character Sinuhe, the royal physician, who tells the story in exile after Akhenaten's fall and death. Apart from incidents in Egypt, the novel charts Sinuhe's travels in then-Egyptian dominated Syria (Levant), Mitanni, Babylon, Minoan Crete, and among the Hittites.
Although Waltari employed some poetic license in combining the biographies of Sinuhe and Akhenaten, he was otherwise much concerned about the historical accuracy of his detailed description of ancient Egyptian life and carried out considerable research into the subject. The result has been praised not only by readers but also by egyptologists.
