#egyptology#ancient egypt#obligatory disclaimer: I fucking love the desert and the desert ITSELF has way more life than most people think#this was about the Hollywood image of Egyptian civ/other near Eastern ancient civs being empty barren sandy shit#and the people perpetuating it while talking with unearned authority about things they don't know anything about#and yes by 'people' I do mean 'big blogs on tumblr'
