Private people were allowed to worship the Aten directly but they still clung to the old religion for comfort when someone passed away #BEC4

@Papyrus_Stories shares the record of the sale of some rather expensive land in Nubia. The document is written on leather and is now @britishlibrary #BEC4

My favourite Egyptological term today: #Obeliskiana by @ChrisElliott8

What have the Ancient Egyptians ever done for us? We still use 50% of the drug sources they used, as Prof Rosalie David just explained. #BEC4 #ancientegypt

I've been having such a wonderful time at #BEC4 that I haven't managed to tweet anything yet! Prof Rosalie David just spoke about the history and future of @knhcentremcr, and slipped in the little dig that Egyptians were practising credible pharmacy 1800 yrs before the Greeks 😂

“You don’t need to be an expert to have a fascination in Egyptology or to support it”
Describing herself as ‘the least expert in the room’ the ever brilliant Dr Margaret Mountford kicking off today’s #BEC4

@KatharinaZinn still gave my favourite quote about museums, Egyptology and good life advice @TeaWithSphinx “we need to be frivolous about the serious, and serious about being frivolous” #BEC4
