From the page: “In January 2006 Professor Betsy Bryan and her team of students from Johns Hopkins will return for a another season at an archaeological site in Luxor, Egypt. This will be the 11th season in Egypt for Professor Bryan. She is the chair of the Near Eastern Studies Department and Professor of Egyptian Art and Archaeology. Her area of study is the Egyptian New Kingdom (18th to 20th dynasties) spanning the time from 1567 to 1085 B.C.E. The geographic area that is encompassed by the modern day city of Luxor is rich in finds from the New Kingdom, which was the “golden age” of Egyptian temple building. ”

There is a lot of pictures and commentary here, well worth a return visit. Unfortunately, the rather ‘heavy’ copyright notice disuaded me from posting any images.
