The Annexe and End of Excavation. Howard Carter uncovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun in November 1922. He would continue labouring in the monument until 1927, and the final conservation of objects would finish in 1932. Over these ten years of work, Carter tackled many challenges, some of which proved insurmountable. In the end, his labour, and the story of Tutankhamun's burial, stand as a testament to human effort and long legacies.Episode Chapters:Chapter 15: The Scouring of the Tomb 00:00:15Chapter 16: The End of Excavations 00:31:50Series Conclusion: 00:52:30Episode Links:For the full archive of Harry Burton's photographs, showing the tomb of Tutankhamun in its original state, see the Griffith Institute website.Date: 1922 CE - 1932 CE.Logo image: A ceremonial shield belonging to the King.

Treasured Heirlooms. East of the Burial Chamber, in Tutankhamun's tomb, the per hedj ("Treasury") contained a smorgasbord of beautiful objects. Some of these were sacred, like the canopic vessels for Tutankhamun's organs. Others were symbolic, connecting the pharaoh with great gods like Osiris. And still others were curious, including some "heirlooms" from earlier rulers and generations...

Curses and Controversies. From the moment they announced their discovery, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon were faced with overwhelming attention. How they responded, and how they chose to approach the excavation, would have a major impact on public perception of the tomb. And, when events took a tragic turn, the media were happy to capitalise on the issue...Episode Chapters:Chapter 10: The Choices of Lord Carnarvon 00:05:10.Chapter 11: Journey to the Crossroads 00:25:30Chapter 12: Of Bricks and Lost Portraits 00:48:48Episode Links:The "curse" brick, with text from Book of the Dead, Chapter 151: http://www.griffith.ox.ac.uk/gri/carter/263.htmlMusic Opening: "She Gypped Egypt on the Nile," midi rendition by SheetMusicSinger.com.

Coffins, Masks, and a Mummy. Within his Burial Chamber, Tutankhamun slept amid gold, glass, wood, and precious stone. His mummy is an extraordinary find, covered with ornaments, amulets, ceremonial clothing, and even weapons. From the famous image of his mummy mask, to a dagger made of "sky rock," the King's body reveals many tantalising stories...Episode Chapters:Eight: In the House of Tutankhamun 00:00:10Nine: The Face of the Pharaoh 00:31:15Epilogue: A Curious Dagger 01:02:35Episode LinksNicholas Reeves' discussions of the Mummy mask, and its possible ownership.

Shrines and Painting. Tutankhamun's Burial Chamber is a beautiful space. The decorations, though "simple," convey a meaningful series of events. The King's ascent to the sky, his entry to Osiris' kingdom, and his meeting with various gods, forms a beautiful journey in the afterlife. Also, the King's shrines (wood and gold) are decorated with complex and fascinating texts. In these chapters, we explore the first set of Tutankhamun's burial equipment...Episode ChaptersChapter 6: The King of the Golden HallChapter 7: The Portraits in the WestEpisode LinksAlexandre Piankoff, The Shrines of Tut-Ankh-Amon (1995) on Archive.org.For the full archive of Harry Burton's photographs, showing the tomb of Tutankhamun in its original state, see the Griffith Institute website.Date: 1922 CE.Logo image: Tutankhamun and the Royal Ka before Osiris.

Seek and Discover. In this episode, we begin the tale of the most famous tomb in history. KV62, a small monument, in the lower reaches of the Valley of the Kings. Overlooked for three thousand years, the tomb finally emerged thanks to a persistent excavator and a stroke of good fortune. However, the Tomb of Tutankhamun has built up its own mythology. In this episode, we begin to explore the tomb, and its discovery, including some lesser-known questions...

Tutankhamun's Funeral. Following his death, the body of Tutankhamun underwent mummification. From studying his body, archaeologists can identify strange aspects of his preservation. We also know many details of his burial, thanks to paintings in the tomb, and curious items discovered nearby. From these sources, we can imagine King Tutankhamun's funeral…Episode details:Date: c. 1334 BCE.King: Neb-kheperu-Ra Tut-ankh-Amun.Logo image: The north wall of Tutankhamun's burial chamber.

A life cut short. By 1334 BCE, Tut'ankhamun had ruled Egypt for approx. 10 years. Sadly, this would be his last. At the age of nineteen or so, the young ruler died. How did it happen? There are a few major hypotheses (illness, accident, or murder). However, as technology and medical science develops, some ideas seem less likely than others. In this episode, I review the major studies and proposals, and present a hypothetical reconstruction of the King's final moments...Date: c. 1334 BCE.King: Neb-kheperu-Ra Tut-ankh-Amun.Logo image: Statue of Anubis, from the tomb of Tut'ankhamun, KV62 (Artstor).Music by Keith Zizza https://www.keithzizza.net/Music: Michael Levy http://www.ancientlyre.com/.Music by Ancient Lyric http://www.bettinajoydeguzman.com/.Sound interludes by Luke Chaos https://twitter.com/Luke_Chaos.Audio mixing/editing by Vincent Cavanagh.Hear additional music on my Spotify Playlist.Facebook www.facebook.com/egyptpodcast.Twitter www.twitter.com/egyptianpodcast.See other shows from the Agora Podcast Network.

King Tut'ankhamun was young, rich, and well-equipped for sport. His tomb contained an arsenal of goods, including chariots, bows, arrows, throwing sticks, and more. Also, artistic images convey the idea of the pharaoh as a triumphant hunter and warrior. In this episode, we explore evidence for Tut'ankhamun as a sportsman, pursuing game across the desert and through the marshes. From archaeology and art, the King's pastimes come through clearly...Episode details:Date: c.1334 BCE.King: Neb-khepeur-Ra Tut-'ankh-Amun.Logo image: G. M.

Maya, Ay, Horemheb, and others. The men who served King Tut'ankhamun were unusually prominent and powerful. The Overseer of the Treasury (Maya), the Supreme General (Horemheb) and the highest courtier (Ay) may have divided power among themselves. Why were they so powerful? The youth of Tut'ankhamun, and developments in royal power since the reign of Akhenaten, may have weakened the authority or influence of the individual ruler. This was the next phase in an ongoing trend, as the power of the pharaohs evolved over time...Epilogue: We meet the King's servants, including his personal scribe (Iny); his personal driver (Per-aa-neheh); and the chief manager of the palaces (Ipy).Episode details:Date: c. 1334 BCE.King: Neb-kheperu-Ra Tut-ankh-Amun.Logo: Statue of Horemheb, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.Music by Keith Zizza https://www.keithzizza.net/.Music by Ancient Lyric http://www.bettinajoydeguzman.com/.Sound interludes by Luke Chaos https://twitter.com/Luke_Chaos.Audio mixing/editing by Vincent Cavanagh.Hear additional music on my Spotify Playlist.Support the Show at www.patreon.com/egyptpodcast.Website www.egyptianhistorypodcast.com.Facebook www.facebook.com/egyptpodcast.Twitter www.twitter.com/egyptianpodcast.See other shows from the Agora Podcast Network.The History of Egypt Podcast endorses RA EGYPTIAN, the clean, natural skincare line with products derived from ancient Egyptian sources.

The King's Great Wife. Queen Ankh-es-en-Amun (“She Lives for Amun”) was slightly older than her husband. Having grown up in the court, Ankhesenamun was established in power and experienced in royal life. However, she is far less prominent than her famous predecessors (Nefertiti and Tiye). Why? In this episode, we explore some of the traces of Ankhesenamun's life, and her role as the King's Great Wife.

Amun, Mut, Khonsu, and the King. Once a year, the city of Waset (Thebes / Luxor) hosted an enormous celebration. The Beautiful Festival of Opet honoured the great gods Amun-Ra, Mut, and Khonsu. The deities would emerge from their secret shrines, and ride in procession through the city and on the river. King Tut'ankhamun would lead these events, renewing the power of the gods and his right to rule...This is a big episode, probably best consumed over several sittings.

Gold in them hills. Tut'ankhamun is famous for his gold. But where did it come from? And how did the pharaoh pay for his costly Restoration project?

One who nourished the god. Tut’ankhamun never refers to his birth mother. And until 1996, historians had little idea of the person who raised this young pharaoh. That changed with the discovery of Maia, the royal menat (wet-nurse and teacher). The opening of her tomb, at Saqqara, dramatically expanded our understanding of Tut’ankhamun’s early life. Today, we dive deep into Maia’s career and place in society... Date: c. 1353 – 1340 BCE www.egyptianhistorypodcast.com, Music by Keith Zizza, Music by Ancient Lyric, Music by Jeffrey Goodman.

The greatest treachery. By the end of Akhenaten's reign, events in Syria had developed their own momentum. Rulers like Aziru, prince of Amurru, were causing trouble.

A complicated career. In the reigns of Akhenaten and Tut'ankhamun, one of Egypt's top religious officials was Mery-Neith ("Beloved of Neith"). This man served in the temples, first as a Steward, then as the High Priest of Aten in Amarna. Along the way, Meryneith had to navigate the difficult political waters.

This is it! The final two acts of Faust Part II! It's the surprisingly straight-forward, if somewhat fragmented, acts IV and V of Goethe's life's work. Will Faust be saved? Yes! Will we applaud that fact? No! Will we get sidetracked with a disgusted and frustrated meditation on Faust's proto-fascist designs and how those designs can be seen at work in the contemporary American culture of this the year of our lord 2020? Damn straight! But we do get to take a look back at where we've been in the podcast and try to wrap our heads around what we can take away from Bloom's “Aristocratic Age” [Spoiler: Montaigne and Don Quixote].The Canon Ball is a member of the Agora Podcast Network.

Erasing a God. Sometime in his reign, Akhenaten initiated a project that has made him infamous. The King’s agents, sculptors and masons travelled throughout the country, visiting major temples and shrines. Their job? Hack away the name and figure of Amun, King of the Gods, wherever they found it. This project is the most controversial of Akhenaten’s reign.Today, we dig into what happened, and why the King did it...

Note: Due to technical difficulties, there's some interference and muffled audio on Daniel's side of the conversation but it shouldn't disrupt things too much. We'll make sure it's sorted out by the next episode.Some days you just want to pass out in a pleasant field and have all your major misdeeds wiped from existence. Welcome to the first act of Faust Part 2 in which the whole of Faust Part 1 is either negated or ignored. Will Faust find redemption? Is Gretchen damned? Who cares! There's a new emperor in town and he wants to party and man is Faust lucky that this rowdy king is in need of a conjuror! Let's ignore the ponderousness and follow Faust and Mephistopheles as they pull their P.T. Barnum act and put on a show. Join Daniel and Claude as they discuss how co-opted characters from Shakespeare absolve Faust at the outset, why Mephistopheles is so keen to switch the economy to paper money, and what exactly the Mothers are in terms of chthonic deities.

Akhenaten (Part 4): Aten Above All.In 1360 BCE, regnal year 3, King Nefer-kheperu-Re Amunhotep IV made some of his most startling decisions yet. Promoting the sun disc, Aten, even further, Amunhotep began to give the god royal accessories (cartouches, uraei etc) and present it as a being tied intimately with the pharaoh. This culminated in an unprecedented event: a Sed-Festival, celebrated at Karnak, and shared by the King and God together...Time period: c.1360 BCE (regnal year 3)King: Amunhotep IV (Nefer-kheperu-Re Wa-en-Re)Queen: Nefertiti (Nefer-neferu-Aten Neferet-iti)Locations: Waset (Thebes); the Wadi HammamatJoin the Agora Podcast Network at Intelligent Speech Conference for a day of panel discussions, live podcast recording and more!

Coming through our headphones, podcasters are like friends joining us as we go about our daily routines and sometimes they’re even the last voice we hear at night as we put head to pillow.

But the Agora Podcast Network remembers what the beating heart of the podcast medium really is and so is proud to be the home of shows that are lovingly created in homes or sheds, places full of life and improvisation rather than sterile studios. Its proud to have hosts with individual voices of diverse opinion, discussing topics spanning history and politics, culture, literature and science.

Can two well-trained autodidacts make it through a discussion of Paradise Lost in one hour? Hell no! But we try! On what is now the first of a two-part episode on Milton's puritan epic we tackle the background of the poem, a bit about the epic tradition, and some of the context for the writing. Next month we'll dig into the meat of the poem with a full examination of Satan and evil as well as everyone's favorite topic the ontological/epistemological crisis that Milton inscribes as original trauma into the history of poetry in English.

It's Don Quixote Book 2, all of the mind-bending reality questioning of a Christopher Nolan film and none of the portentousness! Daniel and Claude and Sancho and the Don join forces to face down our delusions and accept that the “real world” may just be yet another permutation of our individual fantasies. Is Don Quixote's descent into the Cave of Montesinos an early exploration of the idea of the unconscious? Is Sancho secretly the most capable member of the party? Could chivalric manners be the best solution to a rising culture of xenophobia? Are the aristocracy really just a bunch of useless, corrupt, money-wasting fools? Ok, the answer to that last one is unequivocally yes, but for our discussion of the other questions, well, just listen.

And we're finally on the road with book one of Don Quixote. When you look around and realize you're just a burnt out old man why not reinvent yourself as your personal ideal? Is that any more ridiculous than inadvertently basing every move in your life on other narratives? Daniel and I discuss reinvention in 17th century Spain and speculate on the effects the Reconquista and Inquisition (i.e., ethnic cleansing) may have had on this particular motif in Don Quixote. We also take a look at the Don's (and others') masochistic, self-enfolded sexual frustration, which is much less exciting than it sounds.

And here we go, sallying officially forth in the first of our series on Don Quixote! In this episode, we commence with some background discussion of Spain in Cervantes' time, writing in Cervantes' time, and the genres that went into the making of what Claude is very close to arguing is officially the first novel. We also get into the multiple Spains that make up Spain and the epistemological crisis that is attendant to the rise of the chivalric prose tale.

It's our most quixotic episode yet! In that it's an episode that's only tangentially about Don Quixote! While Daniel and I get our materials together to tackle Cervantes, I have a talk with Chris Ludovici, author of the novel The Minors, about his experiences with Quixote and the canon. It's a little looser than what we usually do, but Chris' perspective on literature and the meaning of Don Quixote is pretty singular, and even if this is a bit of a digression from the regular path, it was a really good conversation. You can find Chris' book on Amazon and pertinent to our discussion is an article he wrote for the Penn Gazette, “The Prodigal Student.” Check it out at http://thepenngazette.com/the-prodigal-student.The Canon Ball is a member of the Agora Podcast Network, and if you enjoy our show then be sure to check out some of the others on the network like Roifield Brown's 10 American Presidents a show about landmark presidencies.

It's our third and final episode on Montaigne! So what does an Epicurean think of marriage? What's the middle way in the middle of a civil war? Why are rugged individualists like Emerson and Nietzsche such total plagiarists? And how exactly should one execute a bowel movement?

Northup, also sometimes called Northrup, his freedom, and even his identity are stripped from him, and he continually finds himself in harsher and harsher conditions where he has to make even deeper critical moral decisions. Very briefly, the production details. It's based on the book, 12 Years a Slave by Solomon Northup. The screenplay is by John Ridley. It's directed by Steve McQueen, a different Steve McQueen, not the Steve McQueen from the '70s.
