TRAVEL THE WORLD - VALLEY OF THE KINGS, EGYPT
The religion of ancient Egypt and the mythology associated with it are very interesting and reveal a lot about the way of life of the people. As you can see from these photos taken at Hatchepsut's Palace in the Valley of the Kings, reliefs like these are very beautiful and quite amazing when you think about how old they are and in what good condition they remain today. The first photo shows Anubis, the jackel-headed god of the dead.
