I was just looking over all the pictures on Brickshelf before you posted. This is really some build! Very nice, very detailed intricate construction. The details and just a joy to look at. Even the light bulb holder is Lego. Great work. e (20 years ago, 6-Jul-04, to lugnet.build.ancient, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, FTX)

Very lovely structures indeed. Daan Bargerbos (20 years ago, 30-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.ancient, lugnet.castle)

Hi all, Surfing around, I found this site. I don't read Japanese at all, but this appears to be from some sort of TLC display. Lots of awesome MOCs in ancient and castles themes: (URL) (20 years ago, 30-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.ancient, lugnet.castle) !

Hi there, If you look in an encyclopedia you can find a list of 7 wonders, but these "top 10 lists" of the ancient world eventually got rewritten.

Hi Erik Thanks for the tip - Banker's book(s) look like fun. A change of setting might draw me back into the fantasy genre. I can see from amazon that he has written quite a few in the Ramayana series. Chris (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.ancient)
