Nearly everyone is fascinated with ancient Egyptian history and culture. Yet despite the plethora of information out there about Egypt, most of us still have lots of questions about this seemingly exotic country and its mysterious long history. While many of us just let these questions linger in our minds until we someday stumble across the answers, tens of millions of others find their way to websites like Quora to pose these puzzles and solicit answers and understanding.
The Egypt Travel Blog’s editor – The Egypt Guy himself John Nicholson – has started a new project to go through the hundreds of questions on Quora about Egypt, both modern and ancient, and provide meaty, accurate, experience-based answers to many of these questions for the Quora audience. And we’ll be bringing some of the most interesting and fascinating of those questions and answers over here to share with the readers of the Egypt Travel Blog as well.
