    The Thutmose III Ring is also known as the Ashburnham Ring, EA19.

    See: http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/search_the_collection_database/search_object_details.aspx?currentpage=2&fromadbc=ad&toadbc=ad&orig=%2fresearch%2fsearch_the_collection_database.aspx&partid=1&searchtext=djehuty&objectid=116521&numpages=10.

    Sorry for the link size. Stuart

      Apologies for a non Egyptological aside, but for anyone who hasn’t discovered this yet, it’s worth mentioning the usefulness of http://www.snipurl.com for shortening long links – thanks for the info on the ring Stuart! It is a beauty.

        Other options for providing short links are http://bitly.com/, which we use on Egyptological, and http://tinyurl.com, which I use on the Egyptology News blog.

        My pleasure Barbara. Thanks to you and to Andie for the “how to shortern links” advice. I will use one or more of the sites mentioned in future posts here and on my blog.

        I must say that i have found Egyptological REALLY useful so far. Whether its shortening links, creating an (gr)Avatar, general information- i am getting a lot out of this site. “Long Live Egyptological” :)

    Re: Head of Amenhotep III: Is this the real one or the resin one fashioned by the BM to match?

    Thanks for the comments. Some of the photos from the BM did come out too dark, which was a disappointment, but i will go back and re-take those photos at a later date.

    I thought the labelling would be a good research resource for anyone wishing to learn more about the individual artifacts – for thanks for mentioning it Barbara.

    As for the TIII ring- i have my eye on that too!! It’s a beauty.

    Stuart.

    I’ve got to see that collection some day. I would love to have a replica of that ring as well.

    Nice photos!

    Very good photos. Some of them a little bit dark or slightly out of focous.
    Thank you very much. Avendano.
