Pictured is a female Korean tourist at the Gebel Al Mawta, the `Mountain of the Dead`, in Siwa Oasis, Egypt. It is honeycombed with rock tombs peppered with wall painting. Most of the tombs here date back to the 26th Dynasty, Ptolemaic and Roman times. The tombs were used by Siwans as shelters when Italians bombed the oasis during the Second World War. |
