Website of the Week #1

Head from a Shabti of Amenhotep III
I'd like to start a tradition of recommending a 'Website of the Week', the first being the site for Highclere Castle: the seat of the 5th Earl of Carnarvon during the early 20th Century. The current 8th Earl and Countess of Carnarvon have opened an exhibition of genuine and replica ancient Egyptian artefacts, entitled "Wonderful Things", details of which can be found on the Highclere Castle site, together with a selection of images of key objects from the exhibition.

Yan Tan Tethera: A rhyme derived from a Brythonic Celtic language used by shepherds to keep sheep in many parts of England and Southern Scotland.

Until the Industrial Revolution, the use of traditional number systems was common among shepherds, especially in the Dales of the Lake District.
