Welcome to the Ancient Egypt Primary Project pages.

Libraries

Ancient Egypt is a very popular subject for authors and writers. Your local library will probably have a good selection of books (and maybe CD-ROMs) to choose from. Your school library is also a good place to look. If you are looking for good sources of information, which are not too difficult to read, why not print out the list from the Resources page?

Museums

Many museums, even small local ones, have some Ancient Egyptian artifacts which were donated by a Victorian traveller. However, you will need to visit larger museums, such as the ones listed below, to see more extensive collections.
