Since the Search feature has once again been eliminated, here's a way that you can still find what you're looking for on Egyptsearch, using Google:
inserting the subject you're looking for between 'egyptology' and 'site'

Thanks Myra; and wouldn't it be a good idea if this item could be posted permanently at the top of the forum; until the search feature is restored...

Hey dudes & dudettes, I was searching the history on my pc and came upon previous Egyptsearch pages, since there's no longer a "search" function and "googling" is a tad bit time consuming, this link may make your search a little more convenient. Egyptsearch Archives
Enjoy!

Be wary; some threads, including the "Jstor", topics on the "Rossetta stone" scripts, and "Nile Valley influences on Extra-Nile Valley Art" for example appear to all have been wiped out.

Indeed, and a very well made observation of what's going on around here. Well I've noticed Ausar has returned, and has also posted a thread about Jstor access. Not too sure the correlation there, maybe Ausar doesn't want anyone else posting Jstor articles. As for the Nile Valley thread, I can't say.
I've also noticed an increased amount of trolling.

Well, as for trolling, it has largely been reduced to two socially unreared underaged "keyboard" hoodlums; akoben and argyle. Therefore, if there has been any increase at all, it would have primarily come from these two.

I can't either, since that topic [aka "Nile Valley influence on Extra-Nile Valley Art"] and the other on the Rossetta Stone scripture are in line with the main topic of this section, and the former has been filled with very informative posts, while the latter seemed like it had the potential to develop into a very interesting and informative thread. It is ironic that threads that are actually related to this section of the board get deleted, while those that don't and are filled with tit-for-tat nonsense blossom into even as far as 50 to 60 pages, if not more.

It seems as if someone or some people, don't want us to further our knowledge and become increasingly informed in said areas of Egyptology and history, but instead they want us to repeat and argue in the same nonsensical repetitive threads, as you mentioned, 45 pages and counting.

Education-the source of African Dis-empowerment....

Indeed! The father should always teach the child, and NEVER EVER, the other way around. This is exactly what Euro-centrism is based on. The fallacy of inheriting knowledge and falsely claiming it as your own. I say, enough talk, and what actions are we really going to take, I mean, seriously, the education, that is presented, is actually built to keep us at a distance, basically to NOT want to get involved, or actually even know about history. I guarantee, if more history, like that is being discussed here. Many Africans, and African descended people will become involved. I know, I was never ever taught anything in relations to this subject in school, despite all of this information being readily available, and it's pretty sad this still takes place.
No joke, but, what ever happened to the movements? We've became way too comfortable, seriously. This is way too much too be kept hidden, and for so long, and for credit not to be given where it is due. It's definitely about time. Thing about it is, we have to cease it, (I really doubt they will ever admit the truth) and make sure it's known.

No surprise and no sympathy.
We've all seen these wipe outs over and over again.
Know your power and employ it for self or remain exploited by those using you for their own penny-a-click profit (and probably don't give a fart if you leave or stay).
Fledgling falcons, leave the nest! Your wings will carry you to who knows what greater heights!!
Your altenative is to stay put and be further used as doormats for ES chieftains to continually wipe their feet on your effort.

I had hoped to salvage the Extra Nile Valley Art thread but it's even wiped from GOOGLE's cache. Who can find it via another search engine that caches?
We lost so much off of the EbonyIssues forum because no one would help transfer the data to the real TNV before GOOGLE emptied it from their storage.
