| Welcome to CESRAS, the heart of Russian Egyptology! We hope that you will take some time to explore our extensive egyptological network. You may download any of our images and use them as you like for non-commercial purposes. Our philosophy is to make all research material freely available to all people without "red tape". Should you publish our material, please tag it "CESRAS, Moscow" and let us know where we can see it. If you use it for educational purposes, we would be very happy to know how you use it, and if there is anything more that you need, or would like to have for your work or personal study. We are here to serve science and friends thereof in any way that we can. Thanks for your visit and do come again soon! There will always be something new... updated 29. Jan. 2010/erl Edward R.

This month we are presenting the phase of the Heliopolitan myth
of creation in which Shu, created by Atum-Re as the masculine
principle of the cosmos, lifts his daughter Nut to form the vault of
the heavens while his son, Geb, integrates himself with the earth.
We present both our original photos and artists' reconstructions
of how the scenes looked when newly painted. Here we should
mention that the colours will vary, depending on your graphic
card, the calibration of your monitor and the angle of vision.
