I have been facinated by all things Ancient Egyptian since I was a little girl. In 1972 I was taken by my parents on a museum visit and quite literally bumped into a mummy, well it was his display case actually, but we won't go into that.... I was four and a half years old at the time and it had quite an effect on me I can tell you.  Since then there has been no stopping my interest about, and enthusiasm for, anything about that time and place....

I've done a lot of research to find out about my favourite film and its influences. 
On my pages you'll find links to information:

Where they got their ideas from for the props, costumes and sets for the films.

The real historical people behind the film characters' names.

The languages spoken in the film


and much, much more ....
