マニアなきみはもう当然知っているわけだが,僕は平日は毎日2本ずつブログ記事をポストしている.1本目はこのブログで,2本目は日替わりで以下のようにしている.
他に不定期ながらギークニュース紹介のGeekPortとBackslashDotや,リブログ用の Left Side Story もアップデートしている.
ブログは一本化しておいたほうが管理は楽なのだが,分野ごとに分けておいたほうが読み手には都合がよいだろうと思って分類してある.というのも,Google Reader を始めとするアグリゲーションサービスがいくらでもあるので,読者の手で読みたいブログだけ束ねることができるからだ.ちなみに,僕は僕専用のまとめサイトを Yahoo! Pipes で作っている.フィードは http://feeds.feedburner.com/1kanaya だ.
オンライン週刊誌 Al Ahram の2011年12月29日号に Nevine El-Aref 記者の記事が掲載されている.
This year, archaeological sites and museums in Egypt, and even its antiquities council, were hit by the Pharaohs’ curse, writes Nevine El-Aref
今年(2011年),エジプトの遺跡,博物館,そして考古庁までもがファラオの呪いに襲われた.
This year, 2011, was indeed different for Egypt. A few days after the revolution broke out on 25 January, eventually toppling president Hosni Mubarak and his autocratic regime, the corrupt police force faded into the background and many of Egypt’s most important monuments and archaeological sites were left vulnerable to attacks by vandals, thugs and thieves. The first victim of the turmoil was the Egyptian Museum on the rim of the revolutionary hotspot, Tahrir Square. On Friday 28 January thieves broke into the museum through a skylight and removed 48 artefacts from their showcases. By good fortune, 29 of the missing items were recovered soon afterwards, many of them handed in by members of the public.
2011年はエジプトにとって違った年となった.1月25日の革命の数日後から,エジプトの大事な遺跡やモニュメントから警官が姿を消した.革命の中心地に隣接したカイロ博物館が最初の犠牲者になった.1月28日に泥棒が博物館に侵入し,48個もの遺物を持ちだした.幸運なことに,そのうち29個は,多くの場合市民の手によって,取り戻された.
記事はその後,破壊され,あるいは盗掘されている遺跡の現状について述べられている.その大半はザヒ・ハワス博士のブログとその続報と重なるが,La Description de L’Egypte (Description of Egypt) が失われたことも記されている.

Day 4, Giza Mission
I’m writing this article on flight MS962 from CAI to KIX by using OMMWRITER (former OmniWriter) beta 2. The A340/200 aircraft is now fliyng over Gobi desert smoothly.
Since this is the final day of the mission, I’ll summarize the mission in this article.
The members of the mission are Tommy, a civil engineer, Yuki, an Egyptologist, Ichi, a computer scientist, Mr. Nakatsuji, a CG artist, and M, a trump card.
The objectives of the mission are: (1) PPP (code name), which will be open on 22 September, and I cannot state the detail at this moment, (2) checking the current status of Djoser’s Step Pyramid in Saqqara, of which we have done laser scanning in 2008, (3) collecting any necessary information for publication on Monument of Queen Khentkawess that we are working on, (4) showing the Monuent to Prof. Yasumuro of Kansai University, who is doing computer work on it, (5) meeting with AERA (Ancient Egypt Research Association, led by Dr. Mark Lehner) members for preparing the next season, (6) meeting with members of Kharga Mission which I am involved, (7) seeing Tut Ankh Amen’s remains at Cairo museum for future discussion with GEM (Grand Egypt Museum), to which Japan finances an amount of money, (8) starting up a new collaborating project with Osaka Univeristy and Develo Solutions, code named Egypad, and (9) expressing our projects to important persons in Egypt, including Mr. Nakamura of JICA, Mr. Kishimori of Embassy of Japan.
We have all done the above things and had an extra bonus (smile!). Manami san of AERA greatly supported us.
On Day 4 we did a last run of PPP, and had a meeting with Ana, a member of AERA. We discussed our publication on Monument of Queen Khentkawess. The keypoint we completely agreed was, the publication must be meaningful both in Egyptology and engineering science.We must see what emerges from the collaboration of Egyptology and science, just the collaboration means nothing —- good enough is not enough.
Ichi and Yuki had been comfortable with their iPhones in Egypt thanks to SoftBank. They used email, GPS, and Twitter all the day during the stay. Follow @kanaya and @yukinegy on Twitter!
