- The
Christian Coptic Orthodox Church of Egypt

Christianity and a vital part of Egyptian culture. Did
you know that the language of the Coptic mass preserves
much of pharonic Egyptian? Read about a tradition that
survives from unimaginable antiquity.

week's elusive term might be for music made by people for
people.

tape. We especially liked the "hot juju music"
from West Africa.

images (mostly photographs) that are useful in teaching
geography more widely available. Very good collection, if
small in scope. We hope it grows.

- A description of these little-known and rapidly
disappearing cultures.
- ELECTRONICAL
BULLETIN OF VEXILLOLOGY from CATALONIA
- A fascinating collection of flags from all ages and
places. We had no idea how many different flags there
have been over the years! Also a mix of spirited
political commentary on current world events.
