JKR has also mentioned that Harry would be visiting other magical 
worlds in book 5-I do not think this was the same interview in which 
she referred to an undiscovered room in Hogwarts-however, there could 
be some connection between the two.  When looking for references to 
Egypt, I discovered in PoA, the letter Ron writes to Harry describing 
the family's trip to Egypt.  In this letter he refers to "ancient 
Egyptian wizards", something Hermione tells Harry in another letter 
she is very interested in learning about.  JKR has also stated that 
Harry would learn more about death.  As mentioned in a previous post, 
the ancient Egyptians were certainly preoccupied with death and the 
after world; hence, their development of the mummification process.  
IMO, I think a trip to Egypt will be forthcoming for Harry if not in 
book 5 than later.  IMO, there's some things about Fawkes we have yet 
to discover-and the answers may be in Egypt.
