"The recording from Karnak is a startling display of different scales of time, contrasting transient birdsong and human sound with the deeper, patient history of the temple complex in which it occurs. “Birdsong in the Ancient Stone” is a composition grounded in the appreciation of these two times. "An accordion was used to produce the dominant frequencies from the spectrum of the original recording, and the original was also layered with altered versions to create a sense that birdsong, voices, and temple echoes emerge from the accordion spectrum and recede back into it." Karnak Temple, Luxor reimagined by Graeme Dyck.
A discussion with Professor Peter Brand about his latest book, Ramses II, Egypt's Ultimate Pharaoh.Ramesses II was the most magnificent and iconic pharaoh in Egyptian history. His reign was the longest, the most “monumental” in buildings and artwork, the most innovative in diplomacy, and even the most procreative, with over one hundred royal offspring! Drawing on the latest research, Peter J. Brand digs deep into Egyptian culture and archeology, revealing the mindset and motivations of Ramesses II. We find what his grand monuments reveal, and equally what they conceal. On the international scene, we peruse the diplomatic letters—often surprising, sometimes amusing—between Pharaoh and the kings of Babylon, Assyria, and the Hittite Empire.About the Author:Dr. Peter J. Brand (PhD University of Toronto, 1998) is an ancient historian and Egyptologist specializing in history and culture of ancient Egypt during its imperial age (ca. 1550–1100 BCE). He is author of The Monuments of Seti I and their Historical Significance: Epigraphic, Historical and Art-Historical Analysis (Brill, 2000), and has written numerous articles on Egyptian kingship, monumental art and construction, history, popular religion, warfare, and diplomacy during the late Eighteenth Dynasty and Ramesside period. Ramesses II, Egypt's Ultimate Pharaoh is his fourth book. Since 2001, Brand has served as director of the Karnak Hypostyle Hall Project, which is recording, conserving, and interpreting hundreds of scenes and hieroglyphic texts carved on the walls and columns of the Great Hypostyle Hall. The project uses cutting-edge technology to model and reveal the inscriptions on this forest of 134 giant columns. Brand has appeared in over twenty documentaries for the History Channel, Discovery, and National Geographic.https://www.lockwoodpress.com/product-page/ramesses-ii-egypt-s-ultimate-pharaoh-paperhttps://www.isdistribution.com/BookDetail.aspx?aId=143310Scholarly articles and bookshttps://memphis.academia.edu/PeterBrandProject recording inscriptions of Ramesses II and his time at Karnak Temple in Egypthttps://www.memphis.edu/hypostyle/ Twitterhttps://twitter.com/PeterBrandEgyptYoutube talks about Tutankhamun & Pharaoh's goldhttps://www.youtube.com/@arcetn9553This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryContact information: http://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.

"Karnak Temple is a complex of ancient religious buildings located in Luxor, Egypt. The temple is situated on the east bank of the Nile River and is considered one of the most impressive examples of ancient Egyptian architecture. "The landscape of Karnak Temple is characterized by towering columns, massive stone structures, and intricate carvings and sculptures. You can expect to hear the sounds of visitors exploring the temple complex. This may include the sounds of footsteps echoing on the stone floors and people speaking in different languages. "The temple's gardens and courtyards provide a suitable environment for birds to nest and forage for food, so you may also hear the sounds of various bird species, including pigeons, sparrows, and doves. The sounds of birds singing and flitting through the temple complex can add an extra layer of life and energy to the otherwise quiet and contemplative atmosphere of the temple." Recorded by Rafael Diogo as part of the Cities and Memory Luxor city sound guide. For more city sound guides, visit https://citiesandmemory.com/city-sound-guides/

Karnak was the most important place of worship in ancient Egypt. This sprawling temple complex was built over many centuries during the New Kingdom period, when most of the great pharaohs ruled. Rather than for the public, Karnak was reserved only for royals, priests, and the gods. But today, anyone can explore the site's impressive ruins.

A UK auction house decided to sell an ancient artifact in spite of protest by Egyptians. Christie's London auction house recently sold a 3,000-year-old artifact. A young Egyptian king, Tutankhamun [toot-ahng-kah-MUH N], is depicted in the 28.5-centimeter bust sculpture. Christie's had the sculpture for 34 years. The auction house obtained it in 1985 from Munich dealer Heinz Herzer. Christie's sold the bust this year to an anonymous buyer for almost $6 million. Many Egyptians both in and out of the United Kingdom protested the sale. During the auction, around 20 protesters objected to the sale right outside Christie's, asserting that Egypt's history should never be sold. Egypt's government officials also expressed negative reactions toward the sale. The Egyptian ambassador in London filed a complaint, while Egypt's foreign ministry claimed that the bust was stolen during the ‘70s from Egypt's Karnak Temple. Christie's defended the sale, saying that the auction house does not put stolen objects up for bid and that the bust itself has not been under investigation. The auction house also pointed out that, although the bust was on display for a long time, there was no clamor from Egypt about the sculpture until the sale. To prove the legitimacy of its possession and the sale of the artifact, Christie's published a timeline of the artifact's ownership during the last 50 years. According to the timeline, Prinz Wilhelm Von Thurn und Taxis, a German aristocrat, obtained the artifact in the ‘60s. The record also shows Austrian dealer Joseph Messina bought the bust sometime between 1973 and 1974.
Sudan military, opposition in agreement on governing body Sudan's ruling military council and a coalition of opposition and protest groups reached an agreement to share power. The two sides agreed to a joint sovereign council with a rotating presidency to rule the country for "three years or a little more." Five seats will go to the military and five to civilians with an additional seat for a civilian with a military background. Hong Kong students reject city leader's call to meet Student unions from two Hong Kong universities rejected city leader Carrie Lam’s invitation for talks after mass protests over her extradition bill. The invitations followed a pledge by Lam to do a better job of listening to the youth. Student leaders said they do not think Hong Kong’s leader was being sincere after she invited them to closed-door meetings. Libya migrants face hard dilemma A boat carrying 86 migrants from Libya sank in the Mediterranean with four initial survivors. The UN Refugee Agency said more than 80 were feared drowned. The tragedy struck migrants from Libya just days after air strikes on a Libyan detention camp for migrants killed more than 50 people. China separates Muslim children from families – BBC Uighur and other Muslim children in Xinjiang region have been deliberately separated from their families, the BBC reported. Hundreds of children in Xinjiang lose their parents to some form of “internment”, in camps or in prison. Children are then assessed to determine if they need “centralised care” so they can be placed in orphanages or giant boarding schools, not with family. Tutankhamun bust sells for $6 million And finally, A 3,000-year-old quartzite head of Egyptian "Boy King" Tutankhamun was auctioned off for $6 million in London despite a fierce outcry from Cairo. Egyptian authorities said the bust was "stolen" in the 1970s from the Karnak Temple complex. Christie's argued Egypt didn’t express the same level of concern for the bust which was "well known and exhibited publicly" for many years.

I am continually struck by what it means to have communion with God and to know God's friendship. It is outrageous if you think about it. When I was in Egypt I walked through the second largest ancient temple in the world, in the city of Luxor. It was called Karnak Temple. It was built during the time of the Pharaohs, when Egypt was an ascendent power. It represented what any and every ancient culture seemed to grasp intuitively—there is a great chasm between human beings and the divine. I saw the same thing in ancient sites when I was in Ireland. The gap between God and people was so great no one would have the audacity to just approach the deity without temples, priests, sacrifices, and offering. God is big and we are small. God is perfect and we are flawed. In fact, temples, priests, and sacrifices were present to bridge this gap. Yet even with all this elaborate rubric no one actually thought that friendship with the deity was possible, the best you could do was appease them, manipulate them, or keep them off your back.And yet… Christianity teaches that we can approach God – not with servile fear, but with audacity – like a child to his parent. Yes, even though at our best we are prone to wander, this Sunday we are going to talk about how we come to God in the Soul Room and what our posture ought to be in the presence of the God of the Universe.
Is Ancient Egyptian art truly unchanging for thousands of years? Were the Egyptians just stuck in the mud or what? No and no!
