Mike Lee, in an interesting post about Virtual Museums, points us to the Theban Mapping Project. An online Atlas and collection of articles, archealogical site information, resources and other really interesting stuff about the Tombs found in the Theban Valley. The site mixes HTML and Flash with other media - quicktime movies, still photographs, animated floorplans, and several different types of search.

The web site, done by Second Story, is really interesting (especially if you are into archealogical information or early art history) and shows what can be done with mixed media and a rich database. The design is lovely as well - and supports the content nicely. There is so much cool stuff here - I could end up spending the weekend traversing this site.
