Louvre's "The Art of Outline: Drawing in Ancient Egypt"

Louvre's exhibition of drawings in Ancient Egypt is said to be the first of its kind, as there has yet to be an exhibition focused solely on Ancient Egyptian drawings.

Hence, if you happen to be in Paris from now till 22nd July, 2013, drop by Louvre Museum and pay the exhibition a visit.

What are your thoughts about excavating human remains?

Stumbled upon this post written by Melanie Pitkin, a team member of the Amarna South Tombs Cemetery Project, and found it to be an interesting read.

Pitkin basically writes about the process of excavating human remains and she posts a couple of questions at the end of the post - "What are your thoughts on the ethics of excavating human remains? And, how does this affect your view on the value of archaeology?"
