		<description><![CDATA[Su Bayfield of Reflections of the Nile is posting her Egypt travel journal from earlier this year. Her accounts of visits to sites both popular and obscure are always worth viewing, as are her photos. In association with her June 17 post on the royal shrines of Gebel el-Silsila, she has a Flickriver photoset &#8212; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ah, the Home Goods chain &#8212; stores crammed with bargain tchotchkes of dubious taste, mostly imported from China. That said, I do love shopping there, and often I can find something worthwhile to pick up. Not too long ago I had the good fortune to discover a bowl adorned with lion heads that now belongs [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today is the first day of the season of Peret, or Growing. According to the House of Netjer&#8217;s yearly oracle, this year is dedicated to three Gods, one for each season, and the deity who is over Peret is Mut, the great Lady of Karnak, wife of Amun and mother of Khonsu. So for today&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Finally getting around to posting this very cool, quirky, and unusual piece: an amulet of Djehuty wearing only a pair of jackal slippers. Click the photo to go to the Christie&#8217;s auction page for this item. There&#8217;s another nearly identical amulet (or perhaps the same one?) here, and if you scroll down to read the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Happy Friday! To revive my Friday Findings postings, here&#8217;s a really unique figure of Bes dancing. (Click on the image to go to the item&#8217;s page at the British Museum.) Possibly a decorative element for a harp, He kicks up his feet and flings his arms wide, shaking music from His tambourine to celebrate life [...]]]></description>

(A menat, for those who might not know, is a necklace of multiple strands of beads, which can either be worn normally or carried [...]]]></description>
