Weekly Roundup of Archaeology, History and Historical Fiction May 20-June 2
My weekly roundup of posts I enjoyed: adventures at Phoenix Comicon, modern disaster for a Roman arch, mummification materials found in Middle Kingdom tomb, new Cairo Museum toting Tut’s treasures across the city, mass grave from Thirty Year’s War, Trojan period finds in Western Turkey, Getty Museum’s Palmyra online exhibit, Gamla dig in Israel
