This episode examines the Aboudi Bookstore and its role in Egyptology, the scientific and academic study of ancient Egypt. Established in 1909 in Luxor by Egyptologist and tour guide Professor Mohamed El Aboudi and his cousin, businessman Hamed El Aboudi, the Aboudi Bookstore is now run by third-generation family owners Taher Aboudi and his siblings. For more than 100 years, it has remained central to Luxor's cultural life, promoted the scientific study of ancient Egypt, and housed the largest collection of literature on Egyptology. Its collection encompasses materials on archaeology, language, religion, art, and Egyptian history.We interview Taher Aboudi about the bookstore's development and its role in Egyptian history, tradition, and culture.  

In the fifth 15-minute section of our screenplay, Napoleon's journey takes a sharp, downward turn. Success is replaced by mounting setbacks as our hero heads to Egypt - an ambiguous mission that isolates him from power and allies. The Directory's antagonism grows ever more apparent, Josephine's betrayals come to light, and disaster strikes in the form of Nelson's fleet. As loyalty in his own ranks falters, Napoleon faces not only external foes but the erosion of his own myth, setting the stage for the looming low point of his story.In episode six of our screenwriting escapade we continue to forge ahead in our mission of crafting a top-notch screenplay treatment about the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. Alex Stevenson is joined by James Topham (who knows a thing or two about screenwriting) and Ben Deery (who knows a thing or two about acting) to put the movie world to rights. Having analysed the pitfalls and frustrations of Ridley Scott's Napoleon 2023 in the first season the Napoleon Movie Quarter-Hourly, this time round the team have to come up with the magic themselves.This episode features a bonus contribution from our own Prof Alexander Mikaberidze from 35:40 - explaining the precise nature of the incontrovertible evidence of Josephine's infidelity which Junot is supposed to have presented to Bonaparte... As our resident bot NAIpoleon Bot-aparte puts it:A Playful Opening and Format Mash-UpThe episode begins with a tongue-in-cheek parody intro as “Cavalry Matters,” poking fun at historical drama tropes and AI-generated content, before moving into the “Napoleon movie” project focus 00:00:09.Introduction of the Team and Their RolesAlex Stevenson introduces the project collaborators: Benjamin Deery (acting expertise) and James Topham (screenwriting expertise). The trio set out to reimagine Napoleon's story for the screen 00:01:26.Recap and Structure So FarJames Topham recaps their progress, summarizing the story up to scene 20—the film's midpoint. He details five key scenes depicting Napoleon's transition from general to budding ruler and the dynamic with Josephine 00:03:14.Dramatic and Character DevelopmentsThe team walk through significant scenes involving military victories, shifting romantic dynamics (including Napoleon's changing feelings for Josephine), negotiations, and turning points, such as Josephine's infidelity and the metaphorical “unripe pear” scene 00:04:34.Debate over Historical Events and Narrative ChoicesThere's an in-depth discussion about the authenticity and dramatic effectiveness of sending Napoleon to England vs. Egypt, with concerns about narrative payoff and dramatic logic for audiences 00:12:22.Motivations Behind the Egyptian CampaignAlex Stevenson provides historical context for Napoleon's Egyptian adventure, discussing the Directory's motives, the project's ties to myth-making, prestige, and the origins of Egyptology (including the Rosetta Stone) 00:16:16.Identifying the "Bad Guys Close In" PhaseThe team frame the next segment of their narrative as the “bad guys close in” phase, per Blake Snyder's structure. This act will feature setbacks for Napoleon, the Directory as antagonists, and cracks forming within Napoleon's “gang” 00:22:02.Setbacks in Egypt and Antagonist DynamicsA list of major setbacks is outlined: confirmed betrayal by Josephine, isolation after Nelson destroys the French fleet, Ottoman intervention orchestrated by the Directory, and discussions on how to visually and narratively stack these blows for dramatic effect 00:27:32.Reintegrating and Redefining the "Gang"They debate how to portray dissension among Napoleon's loyalists. 00:43:22.Looking Ahead: Approaching the Low PointThe episode closes with a preview of the next section: Napoleon's imminent “all is lost” moment, a stretch defined as the dark night of the soul, where all seems lost before act three begins. 00:51:07.

Egyptology is the scientific study of Ancient Egypt; a historic and rich culture spanning from 3100 BCE to around 332 BCE – almost 3,000 years! It was a culture so vast that the first documented Egyptologists were ancient Egyptians themselves! So, considering how long experts have been studying it, you'd expect them to know almost everything about the ancient treasures found here, right? Despite researching for centuries, there are discoveries Egyptologists have made that defy even their understandings. And worse… that scare them. From brutal burial practices to mathematical miracles, let's investigate discoveries in Egypt that have terrified Egyptologists.Our Sponsors:* Check out BetterHelp: https://betterhelp.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Il y a des portes qui ne devraient jamais être ouvertes.

Dr. Emma Chapman joins Books, Kids & Creations to talk about her upcoming book The Echoing Universe (May 19, 2026) and her incredible journey from Egyptology to astrophysics. Emma shares how one physics book changed everything for her, leading her to realize that studying stars was another way of looking back in time—just like archaeology. We explore black holes, radio waves, light, and how radio astronomy helps us see the invisible universe. From communicating with Artemis near the moon to discovering volcanoes hidden beneath Venus's clouds, Emma explains science in a way that feels magical and easy to understand. She also shares the year-long adventure of writing this book—what started as a “2-week project” became a deep dive filled with travel, interviews, and discovery. Emma calls The Echoing Universe a love letter to radio astronomy, and her hope is that readers walk away feeling wonder, joy, and awe about the universe around us.

What if the greatest monuments of ancient civilizations were not built in isolation—but were part of a larger, interconnected design? In this fascinating episode, Robert Bauval explores The Master Game, delving into the idea that ancient cultures may have shared a deeper knowledge of astronomy, symbolism, and sacred geometry that shaped their greatest achievements. Drawing from his research into Egyptology and ancient sites, Bauval examines how structures like the pyramids and other monumental landmarks may align with celestial patterns, suggesting a sophisticated understanding of the stars and their significance. He explores the possibility that these alignments were intentional—forming a kind of “master plan” that connects Earth and sky in ways we are still trying to understand. This episode invites listeners to reconsider history through a broader lens. Were ancient civilizations more advanced in their knowledge than we give them credit for? Do these patterns point to shared wisdom across cultures—or something even more mysterious? Join us for a thought-provoking and expansive conversation that bridges archaeology, astronomy, and the unknown—where the past may hold clues to a grand design that continues to intrigue researchers and explorers alike.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

In 1837, deep within the Great Pyramid of Giza, British army officer Colonel Richard W. Howard Vyse made a claim that would define Egyptology for generations: the “discovery” of painted hieroglyphs, including the royal cartouche of Khufu, the pyramid's builder. This single event helped cement forever the idea that the Great Pyramid and all other pyramids at Giza were merely royal tombs.Yet when the surviving notebooks, sketches, and first-hand accounts from Vyse's time are carefully examined, a different and deeply unsettling picture begins to emerge. These accounts reveal troubling discrepancies—erasures, manipulated dates, and contradictory statements—suggesting that the famous “Khufu cartouche” may not be ancient at all, but the product of a Victorian deception.In The Great Pyramid Hoax II, IT engineer and independent researcher, Scott Creighton, returns to the original 1837 evidence to conduct a forensic re-evaluation of what really happened inside those hidden chambers of the Great Pyramid.Through detailed textual, epigraphic, and contextual analysis, he demonstrates how Colonel Vyse's actions—whether through ambition, desperation, or misunderstanding—effectively set Egyptology down a wrong path; a path from which it has never (yet) found its way back.But if the Giza pyramids weren't simple tombs, then what were they? Creighton revisits the ancient Legend of Surid, preserved in early Coptic and Arabic sources, in which a pre-diluvian Egyptian king builds the pyramids to safeguard the wisdom of his age against a looming cataclysm. When this “legend” is read alongside the physical and astronomical layout of the Giza complex, a striking and compelling coherence begins to take shape.What emerges is a radical reappraisal of both the pyramid's function and humanity's own deep history—a reminder that beneath centuries of scholarly orthodoxy may lie the echo of an ancient science, and a warning recorded in stone by a civilization determined that its message should survive the apocalyptic Earth cataclysm that would bring its demise.Meticulously researched and boldly reasoned, The Great Pyramid Hoax II is an inquiry into how one nineteenth-century hoax helped shape our present understanding of Egypt's most ancient past—and how its unraveling may yet reshape our own future.“Egyptologists consider the ochre-painted Khufu cartouche in the Great Pyramid as the ultimate proof that this pyramid belongs to the Fourth Dynasty pharaoh Khufu. But much controversy surrounds its authenticity. If the Khufu cartouche is indeed a hoax, then the implications are tremendous. Scott Creighton has undertaken a very bold and meticulous investigation into this mystery. The Great Pyramid Hoax is a must-read book for all seekers of truth.” Robert Bauval, author of The Soul of Ancient Egypt ― Robert Bauval, author of The Soul of Ancient Egypt“An intriguing narrative, The Great Pyramid Hoax expertly weaves its way through the sands of time, as it revisits one of Egyptology's most contentious issues--the dating of the Great Pyramid. In the best traditions of alternative research Creighton takes the reader on a personal journey of exploration, skillfully weaving powerful themes upon clear emotional expression, as he attempts to uncover the veracity behind one of Egypt's most endearing mysteries. A must-read for those searching for the truth.” ― Lorraine Evans, Egyptologist, death historian, and author of Kingdom of the Ark"A powerfully-argued demolition of the 'facts' on which Egyptologists base their claim that the Great Pyramid was built by the Fourth Dynasty pharaoh Khufu. Scott Creighton's excellent new book The Great Pyramid Hoax is a first-class forensic investigation that Egyptologists should really be paying a great deal of attention to, because it pulls the rug of their chronology right out from under their feet." ― Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the GodsAbout the AuthorScott Creighton is an engineer whose extensive travels have allowed him to explore many of the world's ancient sacred sites. The host of the Alternative Egyptology forum on AboveTopSecret.com, he is the author of The Secret Chamber of Osiris and coauthor of The Giza Prophecy.

Ready to go inside the Manethosphere? Ancient Egypt. The Promise of  Brilliance, Spiritual Truths, the birthplace of Hermetic Magic, Mythology, and Cat Allergies.   One of the themes this show never ceases to deconstruct, reconstruct, and loop about on and on again, is our human capacity to great grand illusions for ourselves.   The ability to witness a full-length feature film slice by slice—with real people performing scripted actions, speaking pre-written words, and imitating genuine emotions, all in two dimensions—yet still construct a visual narrative that absorbs you completely... that's uniquely human. That's uniquely Hollywood.   And that might be the exact same illusory BS way of thinking that Egyptologists have used to delude themselves for decades... Steven Myers is a documentarian, researcher, founder, nonprofit director, author, antiquities scholar, Great Pyramid technologist, water‑pump theorist, lecturer, media guest, humanitarian advocate, and perhaps most importantly for this conversation...a critic of mainstream Egyptology.   You'll learn TRUTHS about:   • How the Great Pyramid of Giza may have actually been built!   • Why "Royal Tomb" theories of pyramids royally suck... • A sharp teardown of the Orion Correlation Theory (and the thousands of original memes that support it) • Where thinkers like Graham Hancock and other alternative historians may still be missing the engineering reality hiding in plain sight. • Sacred geometry, star alignments, and pyramid mysticism and other things you wished Gwyneth Paltrow didn't speak about at parties   The conversation with Steven takes you to an incredible place in his assessment of the Great Pyramid as an open-source industrial prosperity machine, a place where pipe dreams meet pump realities. And the occasional hairball.   Your understanding of Ancient Egypt will never be the same again....

Welcome back to Cheers with Nat – the podcast dedicated to cheering on women in drinks. Before we get started with Episode 2, I wanted to share an exciting update about last week's guest, Georgia Kelly.  In true Cheers with Nat fashion, Georgia has also just moved beyond beer! Last week, on the very day her episode was released, she started a new role as a sales rep for Disaronno. Please do take a moment to pop onto LinkedIn and congratulate her, as that's what this show is all about – cheering on women in drinks. What a start! And we've got another incredible guest up next.  In today's episode, you're going to hear from Karina Aggarwal, better known on Instagram as GiggleWater411. Considering one of the things Karina loves most about her work is that no two days look alike, we start by digging into her job as a brand strategist and consultant and what it actually entails. We then go all the way back, discussing her childhood interest in Egyptology (and the surprising parallel with her work today), how she created her current role, the hobbies that keep her grounded outside of work, and more. Just before we get into the episode, I wanted to share a little content warning that we  also talk about Karina's recent battle with cancer, which she's been very open about on her social media. If you have a loved one living with cancer, like I do, I know these conversations can be tough to hear, but Karina's story is a really inspiring one. She lets us in on why she chose to share her battle so publicly, the positive impact she's had on others by doing so, and the life lessons she's learned from this experience. --- What stuck with me from this conversation: On imposter syndrome: "For me one of the things that has always helped is to know that I've done as much as I could from a preparation point of view… The confidence then comes to say, if there's something that I don't know, it's really ok for me to say, 'Oh wait, that's an interesting question. Let me try to find out about that. I'm not sure.' It doesn't diminish everything else that I know." On her role as a brand strategist: "It may eventually be about selling the product, but you want to establish what the brand is, you want to know who the right audience is to speak to, and how do you speak to the audience." On social media: "The idea is not to say this is the best whiskey or the best beer, it's always to say this for this reason is why I like to drink it or why it's on my bar." On her journey with cancer: Why she shared it publicly: "I just realised that I wanted people to hear from me. Like, I wanted them to know where I was at at that point in my head. That it wasn't a sob story. Yes it was a huge thing and I was sort of getting used to it. But that I was ok." The impact on others: "The other thing that became really important through the journey is that, again, when I first put it out there, I encouraged women to go and get tested. I said it's not something that we are told and I don't know why that is… and a lot of women write to me and said, 'We went. We took our best friends, we took our sisters, we took our mothers. We had been putting it off for a while.' But it was almost like, if it happened to you, it can happen to us." The impact on herself: "I've never been a patient person. I wouldn't say I am one now. But it did teach me a little bit to, you know, pick my battles a little better. Slow things down a little bit. Not need to be everywhere all at once." On scuba diving: "I struggle with getting my mind to shut down… but being in the ocean and diving and just looking at stuff and thinking about how the symbiosis is between these things and how it functions, that really calms me. It stops my mind from wondering."  Links & things: Indian indigenous spirits Six Brothers Mahura More on mahura and feni Karina's favourite comeptitions to judge Concours Mondial de Bruxelles Brussels Beer Challenge The legend that is RBG Book reccs – The Broken Earth Triology   Recording info: November 2025 in Bangalore, India Apologies for the background noise, we were recording in a meeting room in our hotel in India (we were both in Bangalore for the Brews & Spirits Expo) and we had a bit of company on a few occasions! --- Subscribe | Follow on Instagram | Email

What made Egypt the longest-surviving country in the world? Aidan Dodson is a professor and author of over 30 books and helps us explore fundamental shifts in our understanding of ancient Egypt. The discussion spans the civilization's long run, from the unification around 3000 BC—a feat commemorated by the crucial Narmer Palette—until Christianity began to erode its religious and linguistic foundations around 300 AD. Dodson examines the Pyramid Era, explaining these structures as magical machines designed to transition the dead king into a god. He also covers the rise of the sun cult and the political power of female pharaohs, including Nefertiti, whose historical importance lies in her role negotiating the religious transition from Akhenaten's revolution to Tutankhamun's return to tradition.

Julie's story spans decades: from raising three kids largely on her own with help from her mother and grandmother, to becoming the anchor of a four-generation household that almost became an ABC documentary.She shares memories of growing up with a kangaroo in the backyard, a horse named Cherokee, and a grandmother who worked so hard she couldn't make it to church until later in life.But beneath the delightful stories about accidentally fleeing a car park after a minor bump and studying Egyptology for four years "just for fun," there's something deeply moving about Julie's faith. She became a Christian after attending a Billy Graham crusade, and that decision shaped how she raised her kids through turbulence and divorce, how she welcomed her grandson Mazen into their home, and how she continues to show up for family even as mobility becomes harder.

An expansive new documentary chronicling the extraordinary life, influence, and global legacy of world-renowned Egyptologist Dr. Zahi Hawass aka "the real life Indiana Jones" will be released worldwide on January 20, 2026. Tthe film offers unprecedented access to the man who transformed how the modern world understands ancient Egypt.Directed by acclaimed documentarian Jeffrey Roth (The Wonder of It All, HBO's 41, CNN Films' President in Waiting), the film blends epic history, intimate character study, and real-time geopolitical tension into one cinematic journey-captured across Egypt's most sacred and rarely filmed archaeological sites.With his iconic fedora and commanding presence, Dr. Hawass became the real-life inspiration for Hollywood's original Indiana Jones and the most recognizable face of Egyptology for generations. The Man with the Hat takes audiences inside 4,000-year-old tombs, newly opened excavations, and historic locations never before seen on camera, many filmed for the first time with full access granted by Egyptian authorities.At its core, the film traces the extraordinary journey of a boy from a small village in Egypt's Nile Delta who rose to become one of TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential People, Egypt's former Minister of Antiquities, a global cultural ambassador, and fierce protector of heritage, and ultimately the world's foremost interpreter of ancient Egypt. Director Jeffrey Roth brings cinematic scope and a deeply personal perspective to the project, filming on location throughout Egypt under extraordinary circumstances, including active regional conflict during production.No single individual has done more to protect Egypt's antiquities or bring ancient history to= global audiences. Dr. Hawass' groundbreaking work - including investigations into Cleopatra's burial site, the death of King Tutankhamun, and major new discoveries throughout Egypt - reshaped both scholarship and popular culture. As cultural heritage faces renewed threats amid geopolitical instability, The Man with the Hat captures a living legend in the twilight of his most ambitious undertakings, offering rare insight into the personal cost, global responsibility, and enduring impact of safeguarding humanity's shared past. Nearly every major studio and international network has relied on Dr. Hawass as their gateway to ancient Egypt, underscoring his unparalleled role in shaping what the world sees and understands about antiquity."The Man with the Hat grew from my lifelong fascination with ancient Egypt - from watching programs where Dr. Hawass was always the one who transported you back in time. I knew this had to be a human story set against the grandeur of Egypt itself. We shot for weeks across the country's most stunning archaeological landscapes. During our final days of filming, conflict erupted just 170 miles from our base. Some crew members left. Others stayed. The volatility, the uncertainty - it all became part of the story. Filming with Dr. Hawass is its own phenomenon. Crowds appear instantly. You see how deeply Egypt loves him and how recognized he is around the world. My goal was to explore the man behind the legend - the tireless, complex figure who has shaped how the world understands ancient Egypt."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Is it possible to reconstruct a 4,500-year-old wonder of the world – and let millions of people walk inside it? In this episode, we're joined by Peter Der Manuelian, Harvard Egyptologist and Director of the Giza Project, and Fabien Barati, CEO and co-founder of the immersive technology company Excurio, to explore how rigorous archaeology and cutting-edge virtual reality came together to create Horizon of Khufu: An Immersive Expedition to Ancient Egypt. Drawing on decades of excavation records, architectural data, and historical research, Peter and his team served as the project's primary scientific advisors, ensuring the virtual Great Pyramid of Giza reflects the latest archaeological evidence. Fabien and the Excurio team translated that scholarship into a shared, large-scale VR experience — allowing participants to traverse the Giza Plateau, enter the Great Pyramid, witness daily life in ancient Egypt, and attend the funerary rites of Pharaoh Khufu… In this episode, we explore: How Harvard's Giza Project data was transformed into a walk-through VR pyramid Why historical accuracy matters in immersive archaeology What muon tomography reveals about hidden voids inside the Great Pyramid How VR can balance preservation with global access to cultural heritage What the future holds for immersive expeditions and digital archaeology With over one million visitors worldwide, Horizon of Khufu has become a landmark example of "edutainment," making fragile and inaccessible heritage sites available to global audiences while preserving their integrity for future generations.

This week Kate Sheppard and Thomas Lecaque drop in to talk about the greatest romcom of all time.About our guests:Dr. Kathleen Sheppard earned her PhD in History of Science from the University of Oklahoma in 2010. After a post-doctoral teaching fellowship at the American University in Cairo, she arrived at Missouri S&T in the fall of 2011. She teaches mainly survey courses on modern Western Civilizations, which is arguably one of the most important courses students in 21st century America can take. Her main focus is on the history of science from the ancient Near East to present day Europe, United States, and Latin America. She has taught courses on the history of European science and Latin American science, as well as a seminar on women in the history of science.Sheppard's research focuses on 19th and 20th century Egyptology and women in the field. Her first book was a scientific biography of Margaret Alice Murray, the first woman to become a university-trained Egyptologist in Britain (Lexington, 2013). Murray's career spanned 70 years and over 40 publications. Sheppard is also the editor of a collection of letters between Caroline Ransom Williams, the first university-trained American Egyptologist, and James Breasted from the University of Chicago (Archaeopress, 2018). Sheppard's monograph, Tea on the Terrace, is about hotels in Egypt as sites of knowledge creation in Egyptology during the discipline's “Golden Age,” around 1880 to 1930.Women in the Valley of the Kings: The Untold Story of Women Egyptologists in the Gilded Age was published in July 2024. It has been reviewed in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and was a top 6 Reader's Choice non-fiction book on Goodreads.Thomas Lecaque is an associate professor of History at Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa.

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.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the discovery in 1922 of Tutankhamun's 3000 year old tomb and its impact on the understanding of ancient Egypt, both academic and popular. The riches, such as the death mask above, were spectacular and made the reputation of Howard Carter who led the excavation. And if the astonishing contents of the tomb were not enough, the drama of the find and the control of how it was reported led to a craze for 'King Tut' that has rarely subsided and has enthused and sometimes confused people around the world, seeking to understand the reality of Tutankhamun's life and times. With Elizabeth Frood Associate Professor of Egyptology, Director of the Griffith Institute and Fellow of St Cross at the University of Oxford Christina Riggs Professor of the History of Visual Culture at Durham University and a Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford And John Taylor Curator at the Department of Egypt and Sudan at the British Museum Producer: Simon Tillotson Spanning history, religion, culture, science and philosophy, In Our Time from BBC Radio 4 is essential listening for the intellectually curious. In each episode, host Melvyn Bragg and expert guests explore the characters, events and discoveries that have shaped our world.

What does the film industry, Louisa May Alcott, and King Tut have in common? Mummy's curses! We dig into the history of the Curse of the Pharaohs, how they are viewed in the west, and how Tutmania changed Egyptology and the world.

August 24, 394. On the walls of a fading Egyptian temple, a priest carves what will become the last known hieroglyph in history. At the same moment, in Alexandria, a fiery archbishop named Theophilus is rising to power. He mocks the ancient Egyptian gods, desecrates their temples, and sets out to stamp out “paganism” for good.  But Theophilus is fighting more than ancient religion—he clashes with monks, rivals, even fellow bishops, in a ruthless bid to make Alexandria the beating heart of the Christian world. What drives him to destroy? And can an entire faith really be erased? Special thanks to our guests: Solange Ashby,  Assistant Professor of Egyptology and Nubian Studies at UCLA in Los Angeles, author of Calling Out to Isis: the Enduring Nubian Presence at Philae; Stephen Davis, Woolsey Professor of Religious Studies and Professor of History at Yale University; and Christine Luckritz Marquis,  Associate Professor of Church History at Union Presbyterian Seminary, and author of Death of the Desert: Monastic Memory and the Loss of Egypt's Golden Age.
