The sites
Every site on the map, by region. Choose one to find it on the map. For nineteen of the great sites, with their inscriptions in hieroglyphs and translations, see the site atlas.
The coastlines, the river and the lakes were drawn for this site through the coordinates of known places; they are simplified, good to a few kilometers. Site coordinates were checked against Wikipedia. The Suez Canal and modern cities are shown for orientation only.
