Ancient Egypt is a magazine that deals with the subject of Egyptology. It is published bi-monthly. Ancient Egypt magazine is pitched somewhere between an academic journal and a travel magazine - bringing the spectacular sights of the ancient world together with the latest archaeological discoveries and theories from the world's leading authorities on the subject, illustrated with numerous photographs.
The magazine has been published bi-monthly in the UK since April 2000. The contents concentrate mainly on a wide range of subjects related to ancient Egypt, though it does occasionally include items on Coptic or Islamic Egypt and also items of interest to visitors to Egypt. Edited by Peter Phillips, Ancient Egypt seeks to explain the mysteries of this ancient civilisation in a concise manner.
The magazine does not just deal with the past, but has a correspondent in Cairo who provides updates on the latest travel information and assesses the impact Egyptology has on modern Egypt.
The spotted flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) is a small passerine bird in the Old World flycatcher family. It breeds in most of Europe and western Asia, and is migratory, wintering in Africa and south western Asia. It is declining in parts of its range.
This is an undistinguished looking bird with long wings and tail. The adults have grey-brown upperparts and whitish underparts, with a streaked crown and breast, giving rise to the bird's common name. The legs are short and black, and the bill is black and has the broad but pointed shape typical of aerial insectivores. Juveniles are browner than adults and have spots on the upperparts.
Behaviour and ecology
Spotted flycatchers hunt from conspicuous perches, making sallies after passing flying insects, and often returning to the same perch. Their upright posture is characteristic.
Spotted flycatchers exhibit an atypical molt strategy, that is they molt their primaries and some of their secondaries in the reverse order from what is seen in most passerines.
There is/has been more than one band called Egypt over the years. This can cause confusion with albums & tracks from different 'Egypts' often listed together as if they were one band. This Egypt (1987 to the present) is best known for its close connections to 1960s/70s band The Groundhogs and, just to add to the confusion, had a very different style and line-up in the early days, making many people believe they were two different bands.
The early years
Egypt's original line-up first got together in a squat in Shepherds Bush, London in late 1987, but the story really begins a few weeks before when ex-Groundhogs bass player Alan Fish and ex-Jethro Tull drummer Clive Bunker were asked to record the very first album release (literally serial number 001) for the then fledgling record label HTD Records (HTD are now Talking Elephant Records and deal with Wishbone Ash, Fairport Convention, Ritchie Blackmore, Steven Stills, etc.). Also included was guitarist Don Greer (ex-Bachman Turner Overdrive and others).
Egypt is a BBC televisiondocudrama serial portraying events in the history of Egyptology from the 18th through early 20th centuries. It originally aired on Sunday nights at 9pm on BBC1 in 2005. The first two episodes explored the work of Howard Carter and his archaeological quest in Egypt in the early part of the twentieth century. The next two episodes focused on the eccentric explorer "The Great Belzoni". played here by ]Matthew Kelly. The final two episodes dramatise the discovery and deciphering of the Rosetta Stone by Jean-François Champollion (Elliot Cowan).
The music was recorded by the Warsaw Radio Orchestra and is featured on the CD Timeless Histories by Chappell music, produced by Clare Isaacs.
Production
The series was a major new docudrama series produced by the BBC for the Autumn 2005 schedule.
In order to create a sense of "seeing the treasures of Ancient Egypt for the first time", Dolling and Bradshaw felt it essential to film at the actual archaeological sites referenced in the series.
Sponsorship opener/closer for Ancient Egypt Magazine, shown on local TV station "Channel M" in Manchester UK.

The Spotted Flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) is a small passerine bird that belongs to the flycatcher family. These birds are known for their elegant appearance and exceptional hunting skills. They have a distinct plumage, featuring pale underparts, a brownish-gray upper body, and conspicuous dark spots on their crown and back.
As its name suggests, the Spotted Flycatcher is an adept flycatcher. It uses its keen eyesight to spot flying insects and then launches into quick flights to capture them mid-air. After catching its prey, it returns to its perch to consume it.

Nesting Spotted Flycatchers | Muscicapa striata | British Birding
In this video I follow nesting Spotted Flycatchers feeding their chicks over a period of eight days watching them grow and fledge. Watch the flycatcher chicks growing up day by day at a remarkable rate and make the parent birds work hard in catching insects to feed them. Spotted Flycatcher, Muscicapa striata, is a small songbird found in Europe and parts of Asia but becoming an increasingly scarce sight in British birding, making watching them nesting a special experience. While Spotted Flycatcher is not a colourful bird it is interesting for its migratory habits and tendency to often nest close to humans.

Ancient Egypt is a magazine that deals with the subject of Egyptology. It is published bi-monthly. Ancient Egypt magazine is pitched somewhere between an academic journal and a travel magazine - bringing the spectacular sights of the ancient world together with the latest archaeological discoveries and theories from the world's leading authorities on the subject, illustrated with numerous photographs.
The magazine has been published bi-monthly in the UK since April 2000. The contents concentrate mainly on a wide range of subjects related to ancient Egypt, though it does occasionally include items on Coptic or Islamic Egypt and also items of interest to visitors to Egypt. Edited by Peter Phillips, Ancient Egypt seeks to explain the mysteries of this ancient civilisation in a concise manner.
The magazine does not just deal with the past, but has a correspondent in Cairo who provides updates on the latest travel information and assesses the impact Egyptology has on modern Egypt.
The Spotted Flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) is a small passerine bird that belongs to the flycatcher family. These birds are known for their elegant appearance and exceptional hunting skills. They have a distinct plumage, featuring pale underparts, a brownish-gray upper body, and conspicuous dark spots on their crown and back.
As its name suggests, the Spotted Flycatcher is an adept flycatcher. It uses its keen eyesight to spot flying insects and then launches into quick flights to capture them mid-air. After catching its prey, it returns to its perch to consume it.

Mike McCarthy, Environment Editor at the Independent and author of Say Goodbye to the Cuckoo, tells us about his love of the Spotted Flycatcher and his deep concern over the losses this aerial acrobat has suffered and how we have to act now to help our migrant birds. Funds from the Out of Africa appeal will do just this. Watch Mikes clip and please help by supporting the Out of Africa appeal.
In this video I follow nesting Spotted Flycatchers feeding their chicks over a period of eight days watching them grow and fledge. Watch the flycatcher chicks growing up day by day at a remarkable rate and make the parent birds work hard in catching insects to feed them. Spotted Flycatcher, Muscicapa striata, is a small songbird found in Europe and parts of Asia but becoming an increasingly scarce sight in British birding, making watching them nesting a special experience. While Spotted Flycatcher is not a colourful bird it is interesting for its migratory habits and tendency to often nest close to humans.

This bird, the Spotted Flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) was filmed in the early evening in the Lake Naivasha area of Kenya. It displays typical flycatcher behaviour flying out to catch insects and returning to the same or nearby perch. A rarity in the UK but often seen in Africa.

The Spotted Flycatcher's high-pitched call. This charismatic little bird is a late Spring arrival in the UK. If you're lucky enough to encounter them, they'll take little notice of you as they sally out constantly to catch insects mid-flight.
The Spotted Flycatcher is a declining bird in the UK. They are only seen in the UK from May to September and they spend winter in Africa and S Asia.

An excellent aerial acrobat, the Spotted Flycatcher sits on a branch from cover and darts out to catch passing insects. An amazing bird to watch.

(Verlaine) The minute I lay my head on the pillow I'm in ancient Egypt, I can feel it glow, Warm and gold, Gold and warm. And I'll see you there all dressed in raindrops, Need I explain? I don't think so, Pops, Warm and gold, Gold and warm. I've been working, I've been chopping wood, And this makes me a hungry man. And every time I Look up in my dream, I feel the touch of your sweet hand. I sit here now and watch you rub your leg, You tell me baby, that's just OK, OK, OK, And I like to watch that ripple effect, As long as there is no shipwreck, Yes I do, Oh, yes I do. I've been working, I've been chopping wood, And this makes me a hungry man. And every time I Look up in my dream, I feel the touch of your sweet hand. Yes, I used to have one or two reservations, So what? Well, so what? It's a likely story, it's not hard to tell, Maybe you and I will be in for a spell, In and out, Out and in. I've been working, I've been chopping wood, And this makes me a hungry man. And every time I Look up in my dream, I feel the touch of your sweet hand. Yeah, I've been working, I've been chopping wood, And this makes me a hungry man. And every time I Look up in my dream,
