The past few years have seen a profusion of wonderful sites--the late 2002 launch of the Theban Mapping Project's glorious site deserves mention in particular.  Here are the top few sites around that offer significant resources for researchers and other interested minds.  If we've ignored your favorites, please tell us what other sites we ought to include.
