Podcasts about ancient worlds

Welcome to the latest episode of "Ey Up Ellis!" where we dive into the fascinating world of Ancient Egypt. This week, Ellis and his dad explore the wonders of this ancient civilisation through interviews, museum visits, and listener questions. We start with a special interview featuring Ellis' grandad, who has visited Egypt and shared his experiences. He recounted his journey to the majestic pyramids, and his very memorable camel ride! Ellis was inspired to become an Egyptologist after meeting Mr. Egypt, a comedian Egyptologist who visited his school. Mr. Egypt shared fascinating facts about ancient Egypt and brought rare artefacts for the kids to hold, sparking Ellis's curiosity even more. To learn more about Ancient Egypt, we visited Leeds City Museum and its Ancient Worlds gallery. One of the highlights was seeing a 3000-year-old mummy named Nesyamun, a significant piece of history right here in Leeds! The museum provides a fascinating insight into ancient Egyptian culture, including elaborate burial practices and beautifully decorated coffins. We wrapped up the episode by answering questions some of our listeners sent in about Ancient Egypt. Ellis did a great job addressing these curious queries, providing interesting and informative answers. You'll have to listen to hear some surprising revelations and fun facts! Thank you for joining us on this journey through Ancient Egypt! We had a fantastic time learning and sharing our discoveries! See you next time!

A century ago, British archaeologist Howard Carter opened the only surviving intact tomb from ancient Egypt. Inside was the mummy of the boy king Tutankhamun, together with “wonderful things” including a solid gold mask. Treasure from King Tut's crypt has been viewed both in person and virtually by many people since. We ask what about Egyptian civilization so captivates us, thousands of years later. Also, how new technology from modern physics allows researchers to “X-Ray” the pyramids to find hidden chambers. Guests: Emma Bentley – Postgraduate student in Archeology and Ancient Worlds at the University of Edinburgh in the U.K.  Sarah Parcak – Archaeologist and Egyptologist, University of Alabama, and author of “Archaeology From Space: How the Future Shapes Our Past.” Richard Kouzes – Physicist at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Salima Ikram – Professor of Egyptology at The American University in Cairo and head of the Animal Mummy Project at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. *Originally aired December 12, 2022 Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake You can get early access to ad-free versions of every episode by joining us on Patreon.

Books That Make You Go on Amazing Time-Traveling Adventures with Your PopPop Very often, children's books give us stories that become a foundational fixture in one's early life, emphasizing wonder, exploration and love of learning. Retired accountant and children's book author William Stevenson—known also as PopPop to young Ricky— has given us a wonderfully imaginative, historical series inspired by his grandson: Ricky's Dream Trip. In it, PopPop travels with Ricky around the world, into outer space, down into the sea, and even across time, all the while discovering Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, Ancient China, Ancient Rome and Colonial America. They even blast off into outer space and dive under the sea. The most recent volume combines three adventures in Ricky's Dream Trip to the Ancient Worlds of Egypt, Greece, and Rome.

Host, Krystal Kelley discusses the evolution of Egyptology with Egyptologist, Mohamad Anwar Eissa "Mo". Mo gives an overview of the science of Egyptology and explains how it is an 'alive' science. Egyptology is, like humanity, ever-evolving. Mo takes us from ancient times through modern Egypt. Krystal dives into the spirit side of Egyptology and links Ancient Worlds to Extraterrestrial life forms. Krystal and Mo don't agree on everything, but that is what makes this conversation so dynamic. Whether you are pure science or pure spirit or somewhere in between, you will listen to a passionate journalist of consciousness and an Egyptologist who is spreading awareness of Egypt's epic mystique with the world. If you listen to the very end, you will hear a small secret that Krystal explains almost at the very end of the video. Sacred Egypt Playlist

The fossil record acts as both a memorial to life's spectacular possibilities and as a warning to humanity about how fast dominance can become forgotten history, according to our guest, Scottish paleobiologist Dr. Thomas Halliday. Halliday’s research investigates long-term patterns in the fossil record, particularly in mammals. In his magnificent and daring new book “Otherlands: … Continue reading Ep. 46 – Paleobiologist Thomas Halliday on the Animals of Ancient Worlds →

Pirates! Outer space! Wild West! Castles! McDonalds Drive-Thrus! The 90s is often considered the Lego heyday by enthusiasts, collectors, and 90s kids themselves and the nostalgia for them has never been more acute. Considering millennials who grew up playing with Legos are now the most clinically burnt-out generation in history, these tiny blocks and plastic figurines are somehow even more comforting today - and the Lego Group knows that. But don’t worry, they’re here to help. In this episode, travel vlogger Nick and I recount what it was like to grow up playing with Legos in the 90s - the notable collections, Legoland, how it fostered strategic thinking, where all those tiny blocks from our past have ended up, and the surprising corporate consciousness of the Lego Group itself. So get ready to join us as we shrink down to figurine size to travel to Lego Castle and explore the lego-cy of this beloved 90s toy.

Warriors of Ancient Worlds, by Rob Grice Emoji Festival, by Jerry West New Horizons, by Jay Taylor Christmas Tree Samba, by Robert E. Foster

A powerful Conduit for a Divine being are you ready? Dr. Brie will be explaining many of these reasons why she is doing this show.

There’s a new school of history that’s revolutionising the way we look at the past. For centuries, our history has been taught in separate chunks, with the classical, European world divided from China and the East. This traditional, somewhat lazy history of civilisation, zeroing in on the Western Mediterranean, drastically restricts our understanding of the world – and the crucial ideas and problems that have affected human civilisation as a whole; from politics to religion; from war to money. The ‘ancient world’ has been confined in the West to Greece and Rome, when, of course, it encompassed the whole globe. By crashing through these boundaries, of time and geography, we can connect the strands of our human story and develop a more sophisticated sense of why the world looks like it does today – a global history for global times. This is nothing less than a new historical movement that completely changes the prism through which we see the past and explain the present. And on July 5th Intelligence Squared...
