File:Egypt-region-map-cities.gif This map is a more detailed variation of Image:Eg-map.png. Due to corruption artifacts with in-article resizing, use File:Egypt-region-map-cities.png instead.

Regional map of Egypt, with main cities and oasis areas labeled, plus scale of miles/km (approximate). The file is in GIF format, 10x times faster than PNG format, for rapid display and to allow precise edits when adding other towns in the future.

Re-labeled to include 6 oasis areas, with "Giza" and sea-side towns, plus dotted line for Tropic of Cancer.

This file was created by hand-editing as a simple map of Egypt, adding towns as referenced in articles, so the locations of towns are approximate.

Source: hand-edited file using MS Paint.

This hand-edited map was overlaid with an unsourced map of Egypt, apparently commercial quality:

• on 19May07 to 10July07 (52 days);
• on 25July07 (5 hours).

The overlaid map omitted many towns, temples, and all oasis areas.

Sanity check: The current map should mirror CIA map Image:Eg-map.png, with similar coloring.
