Great news, but an incredibly kludgy article... I didn't appreciate the editorializing at the end, because the author is pretty clueless about what the Egyptians thought about the magical power of pictorial representations.

*nod* Sorry about that. I see what you mean. I was going through a folder and clearing out a whole bunch of the daily news emails I get from Care2.com. Any article that struck me as interesting or that I hadn't posted yet got bookmarked here so that I could continue clearing out and come back to check it out later.

I'm glad you pointed it out! Usually if I want to know more about dig results than what well-intentioned gee-whiz mainstream sources will put out, I'll start trolling the academic paper releases from the lead university's anthro department.

*rolls eyes* The gee-whiz mainstream media is definitely no place to get dig information.
