Description
The Valley of the Kings, less often called the Valley of the Gates of the Kings, is a valley in Egypt where, for a period of nearly 500 years from the 16th to 11th century BC, tombs were constructed for the Pharaohs and powerful nobles of the New Kingdom (the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Dynasties of Ancient Egypt).

Gives a free temple, more faith and culture. Triples the loot from the city it is built in. +1 production from river tiles

Production from river tiles seems kind of OP for so early in the game; maybe +1 gold per tile instead?

"Christian fundamentalists destroyed the Great Library. Arabs saved some things stored there; that's why we have as much from the ancient world as we do."

Eh, no. The Library was 'destroyed' repeatedly (last by a zealous khaliph Omar) and most ancient texts were preserved by educated Byzantines. Who collected their books everywhere, including from Muslims.

I've downloaded your mod. However, I've never been able to make it work. Is there a certain civilization that is only able to use this mod?

Fundamentalist Christians did not destroy the Great Library. Christian Fanatics destroyed it, something that should be mourned. Fundamentalists today are not the fanatics of yesterday.

Works perfect with BNW. The AI builds this as soon as possible.

Westminster Abby, St.Paul's Cathedral, Theory of Evolution which could be called Darwin's Voyage or something, Palace of Westminster commonly known as the Houses of Paliament, Pantheon in Paris, St.Basil's Catherdral Moscow, Hadrian's Wall, just a few wonder suggestions off the top of my head.

the Library of Alexandria is already in the game. It is The Great Library :).

Dear awsome wondermaker REGALMANEMPEROR

I would like to leave a suggestion for 3 wonders.


1. Library of Alexandria (destroyed by Romans)

2. Bayt al Hikmah (House of Wisdom), center of islamic intellectual life during the Golden Age of the Mutazilites (anti sunni/anti shia rationalist muslims under influence of Hellenist philosophy, yay!) It was destroyed by Hulagu Khan of the Mongols :(((((((

3. Academy of Gondishapur, center of Persian Sassanian intellectual life during the pre-islamic 6th to 7th centuries. It was where Hellenist dissidents could flee to from Christian oppression in the Byzantine Empire to continue their works!

Almost all of your wonders give a new luxury. I almost expected this to give mummies as a luxury resource :D
