Amara West excavation team, this excavation was during the 1930'-1940's by the Egyptian Exploration Society, from the British Museum
The EES team, with workmen, at Amara West in 1938-9. Seated left of centre is I.E.S. Edwards, then working as Assistant Keeper in the British Museum Department of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities.
Temple of Ramis which is the most well preserved outside of Luxor, i believe. However it is reburried in the sands.

It amazes me how similar Sudanese people (specifically Beja, Ababda) are with Horners. We're almost indistinguishable from one another
We dress the same too, shyt is crazy. I got old school pics like this of my family members back in Ethiopia (corny western clothes and everything) but I wouldn't want to post em. Nice thread tho
