    Cool Ancient Egypt Quiz

    Ancient Egypt Quiz
    Can you identify this ancient Egyptian attractions.


    My score 8 out of 10, not so surprising - I’ve seen a lot of mummy movies.

    9 out of 10!! Djoser step pyramid threw me off. But I missed it by 600 yrs--arghh. I knew I'd do well since I've been there a few times! I did the quiz in about 60 seconds. I read a lot of book prior and after. I still watch all the Dr. Hawass programs and almost any ancient Egypt ones. Would love to go back and take Boss on the Nile cruise, Aswan, Philae and Abu Simbel. We wnet a few yrs ago before the most recent "troubles".

    7-10. Really? The dates 2063 bc or 2030 bc? A bit picky with these kinds of quizes. Missed the maker of the Sphinx, missed which Howard found the tomb of the unknown soldier. Had to think about the James bond movie, I see they put a picture of Sean Connery to steer you away from THE SPY WHO LOVED ME that was filmed with Roger Moore. I remember that one but almost got snagged in that trap.

    Thanks a bunch, Mig. I've spent alot of time reading Egyptology books and volunteering several weeks for the Women of Egypt exhibit@ Cincy Art museum. I focused on the subject as a pastime, and enjoyed each trip over almost 20 years. I am very appreciative of the information shared by every guide who taught me. Obviously, I retained a little bit of that knowledge [with pleasure].
    Shakran.
