The Author
 


Thierry BENDERITTER


  •  Born in 1955, I am an M.D, and more precisely specialist in Pathological Anatomy and Cytology (among others...).
    If you don't know what that is, look HERE.

  •  For many years, I have had a passion for Ancient Egypt, particularly its religious and funerary aspects.

  •  I studied hieroglyphs for several years with the KHEOPS Institute, Paris

  •  I have contributed notably to the CD-Rom Encyclopedia "L'Égypte des Pharaons", writing texts on Egyptians gods, as well as to the original iconography of the CD-ROM.

  •  I am member of the French Egyptology Society, and since its creation of the Association for the Safeguard of the Ramesseum.



  •  I like: Egypt (evidently!), data processing, reading, study, distant journeys, the desert, heat, cigars, and some things of which I cannot speak here...

  •  I don't like: sport (even televised), crowds, dancing, people who don't answer my mails, mountains, cold weather, the "principle of precaution".

" When the real world weighs on our heart, the ideal world must be our shelter, and that world is 'to study'. It makes us momentarily forget the disgusting things of life while transporting us out of the same; while raising our ideals doubles our courage and our days become less dark and quickened. "
Jean François Champollion
