He sure loves the media spotlight...<BR/><BR/>Gay Robins is one of the nicest, most generous, down to earth academics you can imagine. I feel blessed to have had her for a professor.

He's written a great deal on the art of ancient Egypt, as I'm sure you well know - what an opportunity! Yes, I have to say I'm deeply skeptical of Mr. Hawass's announcement as well, although I'm skeptical of most everything he says. If he does turn up something (so far from Alexandria, as you point out), I'll be incredibly shocked (and pleased, but mostly shocked!).Michelle Moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497613149977132385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3008477408349906983.post-1276048639907453582008-07-08T21:14:00.000-04:002008-07-08T21:14:00.000-04:00You are very welcome, Margaret!

(Egyptian art was actually my minor field in grad school--I studied with Gay Robins at Emory.) I'm a bit skeptical about the purported tomb of Cleopatra, I have to say, mainly because of its location so far from Alexandria. I've always suspected it to be underwater now in the harbor.
