Podcasts about Ancient Egypt

For this week's Haunting Season-themed Bonus Episode we're chatting all about the mythology of Zombies and Revenants! To start off with, which is which? Because one dates from Medieval times, and the other comes from a word invented by an English poet in 1819.And if we look further back, to Ancient Egypt, Ancient Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome and Scythia, what root creatures and legends can we find that travel forward through history to become 'The Zombie' and 'The Revenant.'One is rooted in fear surrounding death, too, and society showing due respect to the dearly departed, while the other is rooted in racism, yet both end up in the same place.A world of paranoia, filled with the fear of others, and about the belief the End Times are coming.Mix in a little bit of Samurai and Cowboy mythology and a sprinkling of Science Fiction and it turns out we've ended up exactly where we wanted to be.A place where zombies could be anywhere, or anyone... but don't worry, as zombies can be cute now, so, presumably, less dangerous?Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

This week on F.A.T.E. (From Atheism to Enlightenment), we're journeying deep into the heart of ancient Egypt's sacred mysteries with the extraordinary Fotula Foteini Adrimi — a powerful psychic medium and spiritual teacher chosen by Goddess Isis to bring forth the long-hidden wisdom of the Golden Age.As a child, Fotula's psychic visions were dismissed as “wrong,” but she courageously stayed on her path. Guided by Mary Magdalene, Goddess Hekate, and Isis, she was initiated into profound spiritual teachings from the ancient world. Through visions of her past lives in Egypt, she was shown the ways of “the Living Light” — knowledge meant to guide humanity back to its original divine nature.In this fascinating conversation, we explore:   •

Marc Young is an Australian geoarchaeologist and member of the CRG and is renowned for his extensive research into the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis.Marc Young's academic journey began with a profound interest in archaeology, inspired by early exposure to documentaries on Ancient Egypt. In 2016, after a Joe Rogan episode featuring Randall Carlson and Graham Hancock, he was inspired to pursue a Bachelor of Archaeology and a Bachelor of Science, which he completed in 2021. During his undergraduate studies, Marc was awarded the University Medal for his dissertation relating to the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis. His dedication to this field culminated in an Honours research project that experimentally evaluated protocols for separating magnetic microspherules, contributing valuable insights to the methodologies used in geoarchaeological research.An active researcher with the Comet Research Group, Marc collaborates on various projects related to cosmic impacts and their effects on Earth's history and also compiled together the YDIH Bibliography.As an invaluable contributor to the Comet Research Group, Marc is an asset to the Cosmic Summit. His in-depth knowledge and expertise on the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis and catastrophism further our understanding of the potential influences cosmic phenomena have had on our cultural development. Returning to Cosmic Summit, Marc Young's dedication to uncovering the connections between cosmic events and archaeological records positions him as a leading figure in the emerging field of geocosmic archaeology. His work not only broadens our comprehension of historical events but also inspires a multidisciplinary approach to studying the past.

FOLLOW RICHARD Website: https://www.strangeplanet.ca YouTube: @strangeplanetradio Instagram: @richardsyrettstrangeplanet TikTok: @therealstrangeplanet EP. #1262 The Pyramid Code: Was Giza the World's First Power Plant? Forget everything you've been told about the Great Pyramid. Tonight on Strange Planet, engineer and author Christopher Dunn takes a sledgehammer to the orthodox narrative of ancient Egypt. For decades, Dunn has argued the Great Pyramid wasn't a tomb at all—but a machine: a precisely engineered, resonating power plant capable of generating energy, detecting earthquakes, and perhaps even safeguarding entire civilizations. From Tesla's shadow looming over the Giza Plateau to newly discovered underground structures, Dunn reveals a hidden history that could change our future. Was Egypt's greatest monument the blueprint for a clean-energy revolution the elites don't want you to know? GUEST: Christopher Dunn is a British-born engineer with over 50 years of experience in manufacturing and precision engineering. Combining his technical expertise with a lifelong passion for ancient mysteries, Dunn authored the groundbreaking The Giza Power Plant: Technologies of Ancient Egypt, Lost Technologies of Ancient Egypt, and his latest, GIZA: The Tesla Connection. His meticulous research challenges mainstream Egyptology, offering hard evidence that the Great Pyramid was not a tomb, but an advanced energy machine. A sought-after speaker, Dunn bridges the gap between engineering and archaeology, uncovering a lost chapter of human history that may hold the key to our future.

A new exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK, called Made in Ancient Egypt, reveals untold stories of the people behind a host of remarkable objects, and the technology and techniques they used. The Art Newspaper's digital editor, Alexander Morrison visits the museum to take a tour with the curator, Helen Strudwick. One of the great revelations of the past two decades in scholarship about women artists is Michaelina Wautier, the Baroque painter active in what is now Belgium in the middle of the 17th century. The largest ever exhibition of Wautier's work opened this week at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, and travels to the Royal Academy of Arts in London next year. Ben Luke speaks to the art historian who rediscovered this extraordinary painter, Katlijne Van der Stighelen, who has also co-edited the catalogue of the Vienna show. And this episode's Work of the Week is Robert Rauschenberg's Bed (1955), one of the most important works of US art of the post-war period. It features in the exhibition Five Friends: John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly, which this week arrives at the Museum Ludwig in Cologne. We speak to Yilmaz Dziewior, the co-curator of the exhibition.Made in Ancient Egypt, Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK, 3 October-2 April 2026Michaelina Wautier, Painter, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna30 September-22 February 2026; Royal Academy of Arts, London27 March – 21 June 2026.Five Friends: John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly, Museum Ludwig, Cologne, Germany,3 October-11 January 2026Student subscription offer: stay connected to the art world from your first lecture to your final dissertation with a three-year student subscription to The Art Newspaper for just £99/$112/€105.

I'm back again this week with four more "lost cities" for you. First we'll explore the  Egyptian city of Thonis-Heracleion that literally sank beneath the Mediterranean Sea and was rediscovered some 1,200 years later. Next, we'll hop over to Jordan to discover the ancient Nabataean city of Petra with it's grand facades etched into the red rock landscape. After that it's off to Cambodia to learn about the not actually lost at all Khmer city of Angkor. And finally the mountains of Peru where majestic and little understood Machu Picchu looms among the picturesque peaks. But, while it's fun to think about "lost cities," the obvious lesson of this week's episode is: be careful what you call "lost" and be careful how easily you throw out the term "discovered." These words carry weight and they've already caused a lot of damage.

How much can a tiny insect tell us about our relationship with nature?This podcast episode unfolds as a chronicle—tracing one insect, the scarab, across time and place.From the banks of the Nile in Ancient Egypt, to the French Alps twenty years ago, to today's Mediterranean shores, and even millions of years back, when a scarab's body lay buried until archaeologists uncovered it.Why has an insect once worshipped as a god by our ancestors lost its place in our modern cities?What made it so important that our ancestors kept it so close? What wisdom does it hold? And how can we rebuild this relationship—not only with it, but with other living beings?⭐ If you liked the episode, please share it and rate it 5 stars on your favourite platform.Sources:https://ancientegyptonline.co.uk/khepri/https://www.naturalhistorycuriosities.com/insects/scarab-beetles-and-their-meaning-in-the-ancient-egyptian-history/Cover: Illustration of Egyptian scarabs (public domain, from an early archaeological catalogue)Hosted by Ausha.

The war of the words. Following his strategic defeat at Kadesh, Ramesses set about putting his version of the story into wide circulation. Today, art and texts of this conflict survive at the temples of Abu Simbel, Karnak, Luxor, Abydos, and the Ramesseum. Among those texts, we have the “Literary Record” or “Kadesh Poem.” A lengthy, dramatised version of the events, painting Ramesses as the great hero. In this episode, I introduce the Literary Record and then read it in full, with musical accompaniment by Jeffrey Goodman. LIVESTREAM about "The Art of Kadesh" on Sunday 14 September.

The Ancient Egyptians had a very different idea about death than most people do today.And the idea of mummification is (excuse the pun) wrapped up in so many modern ideas, that we can lose its real purpose.Joining Anthony and Maddy today to take us through the gory details of mummifying a body, and explaining where the term 'mummy' even comes from, is Dr. Campbell Price, author and Egyptologist at University of Liverpool.Edited by Tom Delargy.

“I welcome every noise around me. No matter what it is: a duck, a fish, a deer farting. [...] You invite it all. And [...] this is [...] when you realize [that] every inch of this planet is occupied and we are sharing and coexisting with other species - [so] how can you ever be alone?” In this edition of Earth.fm podcast Wind Is the Original Radio, curator Melissa Pons speaks to Serge Bulat, a multidisciplinary artist whose work - which spans and hybridizes music, exhibitions, immersive games, radio, field recording, and psychological installations - explores the edges of performance, sound, perception, and identity. Serge is from a Moldovan town divided from Ukraine by a river, with family hailing from both worlds. For this reason, borders are “a prominent subject in [his] work”, which seeks to question topics around unity, differences and similarities, and the utopian aspiration of finding “ways to live in a borderless world”. Earlier this year, he released Phonomundi: Selected Recordings of Heritage Sites and Traditions 2017-2024, an album which draws upon years of recording, sharing, and contributing to projects, causes, and stories close to his heart. Phonomundi is also about engaging with “our absolutely disastrous path away from respecting our ears and respecting our culture and respecting our environment”. Against a backdrop of woozy compositions by Serge, featuring nature soundscape recordings, he and Melissa discuss the trials of having a “noisy” mind, which feels like “war in your head” and means that “it's hard to stop the thinking process” - but which can also lead recordists to “forget about [them]self and [...] start thinking about communities, people that are affected, and [how] that [can be] such an ego drop”. Serge also talks about how ‘now' is illusory, and his “weird relationship with time”: “I guess it might be some form of synesthesia, because I feel time; I feel its thickness and I feel its qualities.” The flow of time is “one of the driving forces behind [him] doing what [he's] doing”, while field recording can provide “the nowest now that there can ever be”. He describes how, after experiencing difficulties with conventional mediation, he managed to develop his own system of meditation around listening, where “time stops [...] [and] you find that serenity and that absolute calmness and, for me, this is when I stop the noise”. As he says, “We're all pieces of [...] a bigger body and we're [...] made of the same substance. [...] I always struggle to put anything like that in words [...]. It's easier for me to put it in music. [...] This is what music and sound does [...] and words don't.” Together, Serge and Melissa also address topics including: The relevance of creative work in the face of the climate catastrophe and alarming political developments across the world - including how music, as a precursor to language, can be “a shortcut [...] to somebody's mind, heart and soul”. While also acknowledging the necessity of “dig[ging] deeper [to] understand the issues [with which] we're living” Wanting to make work of significance despite “sonic pollution, [...] over-tourism, over-consumerism, weird politics that make zero sense when it comes to preserving [...] or nurturing stuff that matters and makes us us” - and especially in light of the fact that everything we know is at risk of “disappearing just by [the] pressing [of] one button” Learning to love silence. As Serge says, “We need to reset our hearing. [...] I feel like [silence] makes the ear function better” How it is possible to “feel and hear” bees' moods from the frequencies of their buzzing, and how bee therapy (‘apitherapy') - known since the time of Ancient Egypt - can improve anxiety, depression, and even respiratory conditions. “What bl[ows] my mind [about them]”, says Serge, is their “self-sufficiency, community, [and the way that they can] solv[e] a crisis [by] relying on each other” Serge's experience of an immersive exhibition in Kraków, Into the Darkness, which replicates what it's like to not be able to see, with blind guides providing insights about their lives, and the equivalence of this to animals replying on different senses than our own (such as spiders and vibrations, or snakes using infrared thermal radiation) The appeal of twilight, “when everything starts becoming blurry” and takes on the quality of a dream, and “the thrill of [darkness] and [the way that] [Serge's] imagination sometimes takes [him to other] places”. Listen to the whole interview for all this and much more (including the raw terror of Bob from Twin Peaks!). Read more on the recent discoveries from the James Webb Telescope. If you enjoyed this candid and wide-ranging conversation, you can follow Serge on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, SoundCloud, and Apple Music.

Explore the teachings of the Temple of Set, one of the most influential yet misunderstood esoteric movements of the modern era. From Michael A. Aquino's Diabolicon to the mysterious Leviathan Working, this lecture uncovers the philosophy of Xeper (self-becoming), the myth of Lucifer/Set, and the Temple's quest for self-deification. Drawing on peer-reviewed scholarship and rare sources, we trace how Setianism reshaped the Left-Hand Path and challenged mainstream ideas of religion, magic, and identity.If you're curious about Satanism, esotericism, or the deeper currents of occult philosophy, this is a journey into the heart of one of the most radical magical traditions of our time.CONNECT & SUPPORT

Listen to today's podcast... Sitting by the campfire…making smores and roasting marshmallows.  There is nothing like the total relaxation of a peaceful night by the fire. Did you know that the marshmallow originally came from a marsh mallow plant or that it started as a candy in Ancient Egypt? The end of the August tells us that summer is unofficially coming to an end.  It is important that we get ourselves ready for the busyness of the fall, but it is equally important to ensure that the summer holidays are not forgotten. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Toasted Marshmallow Day: Visualization is a powerful stress management strategy.  You may not be anywhere near a campfire, roasting marshmallows, but your mind can certainly take you there when you need a moment to relax.  Funny thing is that if your mind can take you there, your body will follow and will become as relaxed as if you were actually there. There still may be time to plan one last campfire before it is back to school and back to work.  Break out the marshmallows and enjoy! And if there is no time left for a relaxing campfire, break out the marshmallows anyway, and play a game of Chubby Bunny with your friends and family…not sure what it is…add marshmallows to your mouth one at a time to see how many you can stuff in while still being able to say “Chubby Bunny”!  Disgusting, but good for a belly laugh!

2025 Harvard Horizons Scholar Sergio Alarcón Robledo explores ancient Egyptian architecture through an interdisciplinary approach that sits at the crossroads of archaeology, Egyptology, and architecture. By inquiring about the sensorial experiences of the past, the PhD student in Near Eastern languages and civilizations at the Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences seeks to understand why ancient funerary structures changed and evolved into monumental buildings. Collaborating with experts from Stanford University, Alarcón Robledo employed acoustic analysis to unravel how these ancient spaces would have shaped sound and, consequently, the human interactions that took place within them.

Everybody's heard about Ancient Egypt. But just downriver, the kingdom of Kush was one of the most powerful states in the Nile valley. Sudanese-British journalist Zeinab Badawi gives us a lesser-known history of Africa's great historical triumphs.

What happens when a troll on the internet calls you a “bleached hippo”? You make it your brand. After my first viral video came with its fair share of hate comments, one insult changed everything—it sparked my love affair with hippos. Today, that pettiness has come full circle as we dive into the myth, magic, and chaos of the Egyptian hippo goddesses Ammit and Taweret. In this episode of For the Love of History: How one hate comment turned into a hippo tattoo and this episode. The truth about Ammit, the so-called “devourer of hearts” who wasn't evil but essential to cosmic balance. The power of Taweret, the pregnant hippo goddess who protected mothers and babies through amulets, wands, and prayers. The dangers of hippos in everyday Egypt (yes, they really were deadly). Why Marvel's Moon Knight got these fierce goddesses all wrong. The emotional reality of life, death, and survival for women in ancient Egypt.

Today's story: After years of delays, Cairo's Grand Egypt Museum is finally nearing completion. The massive museum will house over 100,000 artifacts from Ancient Egypt, including more than 5,000 items from King Tut's tomb. Although the King Tut galleries are still closed, most of the museum is open to the public — and visitors say it's stunning.Transcript & Exercises: https://plainenglish.com/799Full lesson: https://plainenglish.com/799 --Upgrade all your skills in English: Plain English is the best current-events podcast for learning English.You might be learning English to improve your career, enjoy music and movies, connect with family abroad, or even prepare for an international move.

From the sugared thighs of Ancient Egypt to the shimmering vajazzles of the 2000s, this solo episode dives deep into the sensual, political, and power-laden history of pubic hair removal. Bradford takes Angela on an intimate journey through time—where grooming rituals weren't just about beauty, but about gender, class, control, and desire.We trace how hairlessness became sacred, sinful, scandalous, and—eventually—optional. Along the way, we explore sugaring, topiary, pubic contouring, and the commodification of the vulva in porn and pop culture. This is a history of bodies shaped by others—and what it means when we take that shape back.Because hair has never just been hair.Want to help us out?

The Wag Festival is one of the oldest named celebrations in Ancient Egypt, a summertime rite honoring both the death of Osiris and the memory of departed loved ones. Each year, the living gathered to share feasts with the dead with offerings of bread, beer, and beef to sustain them in the afterlife. In this episode, we'll explore the festival's connection to the Osiris Myth and uncover its traces in the archaeological record, from tomb reliefs and inscribed stone offering tables to the very first Pyramid Texts in the tomb of Unas. Along the way, you'll hear about some of the specific foods and offerings that graced these ancient tables.TranscriptsFor transcripts of this episode head over to: https://archpodnet.com/tpm/20Links and SourcesSee photos related to episode topics on InstagramLoving the macabre lore?

Who was Ramses II, and why does his reign still fascinate historians today? In this deep dive, we explore the world of ancient Egypt during Ramses' time — from the topography of his empire to the cultural, political, and technological shifts of the Mediterranean. We'll uncover the role of the Phoenicians, the collapse of the Bronze Age, the winners and losers of this turbulent period, the great temples and carvings of Ramses II, the perception of pyramids in his era, and whether biblical accounts align with history. We'll also examine Egypt's economic systems, ancient technology, and the everyday lives of its people — from letters and myths to famine, cannibalism, and climate change.WELCOME TO CAMP!

Heart of Darkness at Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham. Far from the Nile Valley, on Egypt's northern coastline, Ramessid soldiers and civilians constructed a significant fortress to control the maritime roads. This remote garrison faced off against Libyan tribes coming from the far west (e.g. the Meshwesh of Cyrenaica), traded with Mediterranean merchants, possibly dealt with marauding pirates and Sea Peoples, and built a life for themselves on the western frontier. Alas, it wasn't all beaches and bonhomie, as soldiers like Nebra, the commander, would learn… Prof. Steven Snape is the author of many books and articles including The Complete Cities of Ancient Egypt (2014); Ancient Egyptian Tombs: The Culture of Life and Death (2011); Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham I: The Temple and the Chapels (with Penny Wilson, 2007); Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham II: The Monuments of Neb-Re (with Glenn Godenho, forthcoming).

Explicit content. There's a factoid floating around on the internet. It claims that, to ensure fertility and good harvest, pharaohs would annually masturbate into the River Nile. This claim is total bubkis, but where did it come from? Which deities and myths were most closely associated with such concepts? In this mini episode, we explore the factoid and its potential origins. Great gods of fertility and Creation: Allen, J. P. (1988).
