This locator map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.

It is recommended to name the SVG file “Egypt-region-map-cities-2.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

DescreeptionEgypt-region-map-cities-2.gif	English: 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.
Soorce	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 en:MS Paint.
Author	Original CIA
Other versions	Edited version Original source

Warning

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 en:Image:Eg-map.png, with similar coloring.
