In this week's bonus episode, Eleanor talks us through the surprisingly saucy history of glove making!Part of the "Dying Arts" series, we start by discussing where Eleanor's interest in the topic first arose, specifically in Renaissance drama, clothing and costume, before we then explore the truly ancient relationships humans have had with gloves, from Ice Age mittens to Tutankhamen's riding gloves, references to gloves in Classical texts and art, and the important positions gloves occupied in Northern European life, from medieval gauntlets to poisoned gloves, love tokens, and more.After chatting through the processes involved in actually making a pair of gloves, much of which involves some very silly terminology, we then explore how gloves appear in literature and culture, from Beowulf to the novels of Samuel Richardson and beyond, before ending in our current era of mass produced gloves, where their purposes are still surprisingly specific - not least if you're a soldier at war in the Middle East...The 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 (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) 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/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Since it was established by the British Parliament in 1753 to house the collection of 71,000 artifacts bequeathed to the nation by physician Hans Sloane, London's British Museum has welcomed millions of visitors, including some of the most famous names in history, through its doors to marvel at its wonders.自1753年英国议会为收藏医生汉斯-斯隆遗赠给国家的71,000件文物而建立以来，伦敦大英博物馆已接待了数百万参观者，其中包括一些历史上最著名的人物，他们都曾走进博物馆的大门，惊叹于博物馆的奇迹。In 1765, the 9-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote a piece of music dedicated to the museum on Great Russell Street after a visit. Years later, Karl Marx, Bram Stoker and Arthur Conan Doyle became regular users of its famous reading room.1765年，9岁的沃尔夫冈·阿玛迪斯·莫扎特在参观大罗素街的博物馆后，写下了一首献给博物馆的乐曲。多年后，卡尔·马克思、布拉姆·斯托克和阿瑟·柯南·道尔也成了博物馆著名阅览室的常客。In 1972, the visit of the relics of Tutankhamen drew a record 1.8 million visitors to the museum. Then in 1980, it hosted a Viking exhibition. Currently, China's Hidden Century exhibition is being held at the museum to great acclaim.1972年，参观图坦卡门遗物的游客达到创纪录的180万人次。1980年，博物馆举办了维京海盗展。目前，该博物馆正在举办的“中国隐秘世纪”展览广受好评。But this summer, it is not who has been coming through the museum's doors that is being talked about, but it is what has been taken out of them, as a scandal over missing items has made hugely damaging international headlines.但今年夏天，人们谈论的不是谁走进了博物馆的大门，而是什么从博物馆里被拿走了，因为一桩关于藏品丢失的丑闻成为了极具破坏性的国际头条新闻。When the story first broke in mid-August, the BBC reported that a staff member had been sacked and there was a police investigation over items that were "missing, stolen or damaged", with museum director Hartwig Fischer calling it "a highly unusual incident".英国广播公司（BBC）在8月中旬首次报道了这一事件，称一名工作人员已被解雇，警方正在对“丢失、被盗或损坏”的物品进行调查，博物馆馆长哈特维格·菲舍尔称这是“一起极不寻常的事件”。But less than two weeks later, it was Fischer who was on his way out, with his deputy Jonathan Williams stepping back from duties, as the scandal and reputational damage to one of the world's most highly regarded historical institutions grew, with the revelation that there had been unheeded warnings over suspected thefts two years earlier.但不到两周后，菲舍尔就辞职了，他的副手乔纳森·威廉姆斯也退居二线，因为这起丑闻和对这个世界上最受推崇的历史机构之一的声誉造成的损害越来越大。About 2,000 treasures are thought to have been stolen, but recovery has begun for some of them, BBC cited British Museum chairman George Osborne as saying on Aug 26.英国广播公司8月26日援引大英博物馆主席乔治·奥斯本的话说，大约2000件珍宝被认为失窃，但其中一些已经开始追回。Alert ignored警告被忽视The items involved are dated from 15th century BC to 19th century AD, and had been kept primarily for academic and research purposes.这些物品的年代从公元前15世纪到公元19世纪，主要用于学术和研究目的。Osborne told BBC Radio 4's Today program that not all of the items were "properly cataloged and registered".奥斯本告诉英国广播公司四台的“今日”节目，并非所有物品都“进行了适当的编目和登记”。The BBC reported that art dealer Ittai Gradel alerted the museum in February 2021 when he saw items that belonged to it for sale online, but he received a reply from Williams in July that year, saying "there was no suggestion of any wrongdoing".英国广播公司报道称，艺术品经销商伊泰·格拉德尔在2021年2月看到属于博物馆的物品在网上出售时向博物馆发出了警告，但他在当年7月收到了威廉姆斯的回复，称“没有任何不当行为的迹象”。Senior figures dismissed suggestions of theft as "wholly unfounded", and emails sent to Osborne said "all items are accounted for". But the truth was very different.高层人士驳斥盗窃的说法“毫无根据”，发给奥斯本的电子邮件也称“所有物品都已清点”。但事实却大相径庭。"It is evident that the British Museum did not respond as comprehensively as it should have in response to the warnings in 2021, and to the problem that has now fully emerged … the responsibility for that failure must ultimately rest with the director," Fischer's resignation letter said.费舍尔在辞职信中说：“很明显，大英博物馆没有对2021年的警告和现在已经完全显现的问题做出应有的全面回应......最终责任必须由馆长承担。”Though it is called the British Museum, the most frequently searched term on its website is "Egypt". Despite the location, many of its most famous pieces are from much further afield.虽然名为大英博物馆，但其网站上最常被搜索的词却是“埃及”。尽管大英博物馆位于英国，但许多最著名的藏品却来自其他国家和地区。For many years, questions have been asked — and not always satisfactorily answered — about how some of them ended up in British hands.多年来，人们一直在追问其中一些藏品是如何落入英国人手中的，但答案并不总是令人满意。Sloane, whose life's collection started the museum, was a highly respected medic, promoting inoculation against smallpox, and becoming president of both the College of Physicians and the Royal Society. But the museum's own biography of him acknowledges that he worked on slave plantations, and that his wife's family fortune, which helped fund his collection, also had links to slavery.斯隆一生的收藏是博物馆的起点，他是一位备受尊敬的医生，提倡接种天花疫苗，并成为内科学院和皇家学会的主席。但博物馆自己为他撰写的传记承认，他曾在奴隶种植园工作过，他妻子的家族财富也与奴隶制有关，而这笔财富也为他的收藏提供了资金。In addition to the contentious provenance of many of its exhibits, the security lapses exposed by the scandal have demolished the suggestion that the British Museum is a safer repository for priceless items of international cultural significance than their places of origin.除了许多展品的来源备受争议之外，丑闻暴露出的安全漏洞也使人们不再认为大英博物馆是比其原产地更安全的具有国际文化意义的无价之宝的存放处。One of the most high-profile examples of this is the long-running dispute with Greece over the marble friezes from the Parthenon in Athens, acquired by Thomas Elgin in the early part of the 1800s and subsequently sold to the museum. The other is the Benin bronzes, brought back by British soldiers from what is now southern Nigeria, in the late 19th century.其中最著名的例子之一就是与希腊就雅典帕台农神庙大理石楣板的长期争端，托马斯·埃尔金在19世纪早期收购了这些大理石楣板，随后卖给了大英博物馆。另一件是19世纪末英国士兵从现在的尼日利亚南部带回的贝宁青铜器。Member of Parliament Bell Ribeiro-Addy, chair of the all-party parliamentary group on Afrikan reparations, told The Guardian that the recent scandal, and the fact that there is a specific law — the 1963 British Museum Act preventing the return of such objects — highlighted the "insulting ridiculousness" of the situation.非洲裔人赔偿问题跨党派议会小组主席、议员贝尔·里贝罗·阿迪告诉《卫报》，最近的丑闻，以及有专门法律（1963年《大英博物馆法》）阻止归还此类文物的事实，表明这种情况“荒唐透顶”。Unfolding scandal不断发展的丑闻"One of the most insulting reasons that they've given is that the other countries that these items belong to would either not be able to take care of them or they are likely to be stolen," she said. "But you've got people in this country putting them on eBay."她表示：“他们给出的一个最侮辱人的理由是，这些物品所属的其他国家要么没有能力处理这些物品，要么这些物品很可能被盗。”她说：“但这个国家的人却把它们放到了eBay上。”Unsurprisingly, the Greek government has been watching the unfolding of the scandal closely, saying that it "reinforces the permanent and just demand of our country for the definitive return" of the marbles.不出所料，希腊政府一直在密切关注着这起丑闻的发展，并表示这“坚定了我国对最终归还大理石的永久而公正的要求。”In an interview with newspaper To Vima, Greek Minister of Culture Lina Mendoni said the scandal brought into question the fundamental credibility of the British Museum.希腊文化部长莉娜·门多尼在接受《To Vima》报采访时说，丑闻使大英博物馆的基本信誉受到质疑。"The loss, theft, deterioration of objects from a museum's collections is an extremely serious and particularly sad event," she said. "In fact, when this happens from within, beyond any moral and criminal responsibility, a major question arises regarding the credibility of the museum organization itself … the Ministry of Culture is following the development of the issue with great attention."她表示：“博物馆藏品的丢失、失窃和变质是一件极其严重和特别令人痛心的事情。事实上，当这种情况从内部发生时，除了任何道德和刑事责任之外，博物馆组织本身的信誉也会出现重大问题......我国文化部正在密切关注此事的发展。”An unnamed Greek government official was quoted by the Financial Times as saying that the government "like others in the cultural community, are shocked by the scale of the theft … these issues have no direct bearing on our campaign for our legal right for the return of the Parthenon Sculptures to Greece, which continues unabated".《金融时报》援引一位不愿透露姓名的希腊政府官员的话说，希腊政府“与文化界其他人士一样，对盗窃案的规模感到震惊......这些问题与我们争取帕特农神庙浮雕回归希腊的合法权利的活动没有直接关系，我们的活动仍在继续。”In addition to the current temporary exhibition, which ends in October, there are around 23,000 pieces from China among the British Museum's estimated 8 million items, with some there since its foundation.目前的临时展览将于10月结束，除此之外，在大英博物馆约800万件藏品中，约有2.3万件来自中国，其中一些藏品自建馆以来就一直在那里。Given the importance that has recently been placed on repatriating Chinese cultural artifacts that have ended up overseas, the saga has been followed with interest in Beijing. There has been no formal comment from the authorities yet, but there was a strongly worded editorial piece about the issue in the Global Times on Aug 28.鉴于近来对流失海外的中国文物回国的重视，中方一直在关注这一事件。中国政府尚未对此发表正式评论，但8月28日《环球时报》发表了一篇措辞强烈的社论。Emiline Smith, a fellow of the Centre for Criminology at the University of Hong Kong and a lecturer at the University of Glasgow in Scotland, told China Daily that although the initial story had taken her by surprise, given the museum's status as being the epitome of safe guardianship, it was less of a shock when more details emerged.香港大学犯罪学中心研究员、苏格兰格拉斯哥大学讲师埃米琳·史密斯告诉《中国日报》，虽然最初的报道让她大吃一惊，但考虑到博物馆是安全监护的缩影，当更多细节出现时，她就不那么震惊了。"It was clear that there was total lack of oversight and action contributing to an epic failure," she explained. "This isn't the first theft from a museum, and it's not the first insider theft either — anyone who's been in museum storage would know that things do go walkabout, and in this case, it was very clear that there is far too much in the collection for anyone to be able to control it effectively.她解释说：“很明显，完全缺乏监督和行动导致了史无前例的失败。”她解释说：“这不是博物馆第一次失窃，也不是第一次内部失窃--任何在博物馆仓库里呆过的人都会知道，东西确实会不翼而飞，而在这起案件中，很明显藏品太多，任何人都无法对其进行有效控制。”"It's a problem of documentation, but also a problem of funding in relation to the kind of oversight needed to avoid these things happening. In recent years, the former government's policy of austerity has clearly had a negative impact in terms of the loss of expertise and a weakening of the systems that could have prevented this happening, so it's quite ironic that the former chancellor of the exchequer George Osborne, one of the political architects of that policy, is now chairman of the museum, when this has emerged."“这是一个归档的问题，也是一个资金的问题，涉及到避免这些事情发生所需的监督。近年来，前政府的紧缩政策显然产生了负面影响，导致专业人才的流失，削弱了本可以防止此类事件发生的系统，因此，前财政大臣乔治·奥斯本作为该政策的政治设计师之一，如今却成为博物馆的主席，而这一事件却出现了，真是颇具讽刺意味。”Although the British Museum had the misfortune to be caught out, other museums around the world, particularly ones with roots in colonialism, could face many of the same difficult questions.虽然大英博物馆不幸中招，但世界各地的其他博物馆，尤其是那些与殖民主义有渊源的博物馆，也可能面临许多同样棘手的问题。In recent years, momentum has been building behind a wider global movement to repatriate items, and Smith said the publicity this incident has received had given that campaign renewed energy.近年来，全球范围内掀起了一场遣返文物的运动，史密斯说，这次事件的曝光为这场运动注入了新的活力。"It seems that for too long, the British Museum has been run by people who have regarded it as a private collection and think no one will ask any questions," she said. "It seems to have been operating on a too-big-to-fail mentality. This has been proven very wrong."她说：”似乎长期以来，大英博物馆都是由一些人在管理，他们把大英博物馆视为私人收藏，认为没有人会提出任何问题。”她说，“大英博物馆似乎一直抱着‘大而不能倒'的心态在运营。事实证明这是大错特错的。”China is one of many countries that will be keeping a close eye on how the story continues to develop, given the amount of items of its own heritage that are in different hands and distant lands. But as Smith pointed out, its approach to repatriation so far has been distinctive.中国是密切关注此事后续发展的众多国家之一，因为中国有大量的文物掌握在不同的人和遥远的国度手中。但正如史密斯所指出的，迄今为止，中国对文物回归的态度是与众不同的。"China has positioned itself slightly differently from other countries, as it's bought back items — normally countries of origin make a legal claim, involving law enforcement and suing, or go down the ethical route, making a public claim," Smith explained.史密斯解释说：“中国的定位与其他国家略有不同，因为它买回了文物--通常情况下，文物来源国会提出法律要求，包括执法和起诉，或者走道德路线，提出公开要求。”"Instead, China … has asked private donors to buy back objects, which are then reinstated through private museums, which has been effective — if Chinese items ever come up at auction, the room is sure to be full of Chinese buyers."“相反，中国......要求私人捐赠者回购文物，然后通过私人博物馆恢复原状，这种做法很有效。如果中国的物品出现在拍卖会上，拍卖场上肯定会挤满中国买家。”Wider shock waves更广泛的冲击Although official voices have not been heard from China on the issue, the Global Times made it clear where the authorities stand over the matter.尽管中国官方尚未就此事发出声音，但《环球时报》清楚地表明了当局对此事的立场。"The Global Times statement showed a desire to go down the ethical route and hold countries accountable for the harms they have done through history," she explained.她解释说：“《环球时报》的声明表明，中国希望走道德路线，让各国为其在历史上造成的伤害负责。”The wider shock waves caused by the museum's very public crash and burn are likely to embolden efforts from communities of origin around the world to reclaim their heritage, a path of action cleared by the most unlikely of helpers — COVID-19.博物馆的公开坍塌和焚毁所引发的更大范围的冲击很可能会使世界各地的原住民社区更有勇气重新找回他们的遗产，而最不可能的帮助者——新冠疫情——则为这一行动开辟了道路。"The pandemic meant museums had to put their collections online, to maintain visitor interest, and that made it easier to discover where things are," she explained.她解释说：“新冠疫情意味着博物馆必须将其藏品放到网上，吸引游客的兴趣，这使得人们更容易发现藏品的下落。”"Now people in even the remotest areas can get hold of a smartphone and follow the story and track things down, so you're getting countries and communities that haven't necessarily spoken up before saying that they want their heritage back. Politically, it's extremely interesting."她解释道：“现在，即使是最偏远地区的人们也可以通过智能手机了解相关故事，追踪相关物品，因此，以前不一定会说出来的国家和社区现在也会说，他们想要回自己的遗产。从政治层面来看，这非常有趣。”As the museum looks to rebuild its credibility, Carl Heron, its director of scientific research, has been appointed as acting deputy director. But the museum's journey back to its former status will be a long one, with difficult decisions to be made along the way.由于博物馆希望重建其信誉，其科学研究主管卡尔·赫伦已被任命为代理副馆长。但是，博物馆恢复其昔日地位的道路将是漫长的，一路上需要做出艰难的决定。What was initially described as a "highly unusual incident" has brought voices and spirits from the past into the spotlight of the present, and the final irony is that these items, long buried in dark archives, could end up shaping the future of the museum world.最初被描述为“极不寻常的事件”将过去的声音和精神带到了现在的聚光灯下，而最后的讽刺是，这些长期埋藏在黑暗档案中的物品最终可能会塑造博物馆世界的未来。"For years, momentum has been dictated by European and North American forces, but it's high time someone else took over at the wheel as what they have been doing has been shown to have failed," Smith said.史密斯说：“多年来，欧洲和北美的力量一直在主导着博物馆的发展势头，但现在是时候让其他人来掌舵了，因为他们一直在做的事情已经被证明是失败的。”"The world is ready for the British Museum to be reinvented, so it needs to take stock of what it has, and come up with an authentic and equitable safeguarding plan that is practical, as opposed to the outdated approach of the gentleman curator. If it changes those values, then there's hope it can reinvent and rebuild itself."“世界已经准备好让大英博物馆重塑形象，因此它需要对自己所拥有的一切进行评估，并提出一个真实、公平、切实可行的保护计划，而不是像绅士馆长那样采用过时的方法。如果它能改变这些价值观，那么它就有希望重塑和重建自己。”Artifact英/ˈɑːtɪfækt/ 美/ˈɑːrtɪfækt/n.（尤指有文化价值或历史价值的）人工制品，历史文物Scandal英/ˈskænd(ə)l/ 美/ˈskænd(ə)l/n.丑行，丑闻

Tutankhamen died at 19 years old. No one is sure why or how.  His tomb, his mummy, and his DNA offer some tantalizing clues, but no definitive answer.   Here is the life and death of one of the best known mummies, from one of the least known Pharohs, in ancient history; a dive deeper than any other podcast is capable or willing to take.  It is a tale of sorrows and pains, of bizarre family dynamics, of deformities and deat, and of intrigue and possible murder. In the end, we answer what can be answered about the life and mysterious death of the most famous of all Pharaohs, King Tut.

Horemheb's Great Decree. Sometime during his reign, King Horemheb proclaimed a new set of laws. Taking aim at corruption and abuses-of-power (allegedly happening throughout Egypt), the pharaoh went hard on corrective measures. Punishments could range from beatings to disfigurement, exile, and death. Horemheb was not messing around. But what was he really trying to achieve?Episode details, pictures and references at www.egyptianhistorypodcast.comIntro music by Keith Zizza www.keithzizza.netInterludes and Outro music by Luke Chaos www.twitter.com/luke_chaosLogo: Horemheb and Amun.

Guy De La Bédoyère – Pharaohs of the Sun: How Egypt's despots and dreamers drove the Rise and Fall of Tutankhamen's Dynasty...with TRE's Selina MacKenzie

The author of the multi-million-selling Languedoc trilogy, set amidst religious wars in south-west France and beginning with the bestselling Labyrinth, Kate Mosse has written nine novels and short story collections, and four plays. She is also one of the co-founders of the Women's Prize For Fiction. Kate Mosse tells John Wilson about first visiting the Festival Theatre in her hometown of Chichester at the age of six and seeing the 19th-century French farce The Italian Straw Hat, an experience that opened her mind to the power of drama. She remembers being among the million and a half visitors to the blockbuster Tutankhamen exhibition at the British Museum in 1972, and explains how her interest in historical narratives can be traced back to the treasures of the boy king. Kate Mosse also chooses two literary influences for This Cultural Life. Having read Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights as a teenager, she says the way that Bronte describes the Yorkshire moors as like a character in their own right influenced her own novels in which the Languedoc landscape plays a similar narrative role. Her last big cultural moment is the 1991 Booker Prize for Fiction when an all-male shortlist prompted Kate and other literary figures to create the Women's Prize for Fiction as a way of shining the spotlight on novels written by women anywhere in the world.

Jenny Wheeler: You wrote three teen novels, but then you got into what they are calling your breakout hit, your first adult novel, Funny You Should Ask. It's a witty romance built around the whole dynamic of celebrity journalism. How did you make that leap from the earlier teen novels to this adult novel that's being so widely acclaimed? Elissa Sussman: Thank you. It's funny because it feels like a very natural progression. In some ways I'm like, why did it take me so long to write a romance and an adult romance at that? I grew up reading romance, loving romance. Since middle school, I was a huge romance reader, getting books from the library constantly. Then during a lull in work, when I was writing YA fiction, I got an opportunity to ghost write adult romance books, and it reminded me of how much fun I had reading it as a teenager and how much I missed it. It was like getting paid to go to romance writing boot camp....

Liliana Russo in TuttoLibri presenta... Tutankhamen, di Howard Carter

This episode is about the idea of the Pharaoh's Curse and the untimely demise of people who dared to disturb Tutankhamen's burial chamber. In 1923, Howard Carter and his team broke into the burial chamber of Tutankhamen, commonly referred to as "King Tut." Just two months later Lord Canarvon, a man who was present on the exhibition, died from blood poisoning. Carter's pet was eaten by a cobra, the symbol of the Egyptian monarchy. These and other unfortunate events gave credence to the idea of a mummy's curse. For me the real tragedy is the lack of respect for the human remains, but however you look at it, beautiful artworks like Tutankhamen's burial mask have a dark side.

This week on the paranormal concept show we take a look at the various fundamental reasons that are at play behind the concept of curses and ask are they really a supernatural force at play.

John “Jack” Buchanan, born 1931 in Glens Falls, NY, joined the staff of the Metropolitan Museum of Art as Museum Archivist on November 7th, 1966. A few years later the new Director of the Museum, Thomas Hoving, appointed him Chief Registrar of the Museum and for the next twenty-two years Buchanan was in charge of worldwide art movements: packing, shipping, security in transit, and fine arts insurance In that capacity he traveled widely throughout the U.S., Europe, the Soviet Union, Middle East, India, China, Japan, and Mexico. He moved several “Blockbuster” exhibitions. They included, Tutankhamen, Treasures of the Vatican, Manet, Treasures of Early Irish Art, Great Bronze Age of China, Mexico, and several others. He planned the movement to and from the Soviet Union of the first exhibition (American and European paintings) an American museum sent to that country and worked closely with couriers (curators and conservators) in Helsinki, Leningrad (St. Petersburg), and Moscow. During his tenure as Chief Registrar, he worked on exhibitions in the Soviet Union on six occasions, and during one trip he worked with Tom Hoving and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. In 1972 Hoving appointed Buchanan as his Special Assistant –while remaining Chief Registrar, thus he wore two hats. As Special Assistant he decided which matters should be brought to the Director's attention, and which he could handle himself or farm out to others. He also worked with Hoving on gaining political and then financial support for the construction of the New American Wing, which meant hobnobbing with Democratic politicians in smoke-filled clubhouses. Hoving became the Interim Director of the Queens Museum. Buchanan was the Deputy Interim Director and when Mr. Hoving retired, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, C. Douglas Dillon, assigned Buchanan to serve as Special Assistant to the first paid President of the Museum, William B. Macomber. He remained Chief Registrar and still traveled with exhibitions. In 1983, following twelve years of wearing two hats under Hoving and Macomber, with the special exhibition schedule booming, Buchanan decided to hand over the Special Assistant duties to a colleague and resumed wearing one hat. Upon his retirement, Buchanan returned to the study of history and published three books with John Wiley & Sons: the widely acclaimed “The Road to Guilford Courthouse: The American Revolution in the Carolinas" (1997); the controversial “Jackson's Way: Andrew Jackson and the People of the Western Waters” (2001); and the “The Road to Valley Forge: How Washington Built the Army That Won the Revolution” (2004), which received the Thomas Fleming award for best book of 2004 by the Philadelphia American Revolution Round Table. Mr. Buchanan has appeared on C-Span and the History Channel, and has contributed several book reviews to the Journal of Military History as well as acted as referee for proposed articles in JMH. He has also published short stories in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, and his self-published Cold War novel, The Rise of Stefan Gregorovic (2010), was described by a critic as “one of the most gripping narratives I've ever read.”

KingTutankhamen

The man behind the map In this special bonus episode of Mapping Evil with Mike King, award-winning journalist Tory Shepherd takes a closer look at the man behind the map. With a little encouragement from Tory, Mike delves deep into his past, sharing intimate details of the stories that have shaped his life and career. From a near fatal accident during the earliest days of his time on the force, to his encounters with a sitting president and some of America’s most malevolent serial killers – Mike reveals the twists and turns of a career that reads more like a Hollywood script than a resume. His walk down memory lane takes Mike back over the most defining cold cases of his career, venturing deep into the heart of America’s ‘Wild Wild West’ and all the way back to the time of Tutankhamen. Join Tory as she shares some of the more candid moments captured with Mike throughout Season One of Mapping Evil. “And we should not make any mistakes about this. These people that kill people – it's hard to kill someone and yet they will continue to do it. And when they fail or fall short or the victim lives, they have to return back to their confines and work out in their mind, that fantasy, figure out what they did wrong and solve it the next time.” +++ Mapping Evil is hosted by award-winning journalist Tory Shepherd, featuring renowned criminal profiler, cold case specialist, and crime mapping master – Mike King. Offering listeners a look at real crimes through an experienced investigator’s eye, Mapping Evil takes you on a journey into the minds of predators and the lives of those tasked with bringing them to justice. 

Many rulers have tried playing God, from Tutankhamen to Mao Tse Tung. How stunning is it that God decided to come to Earth as a human baby? This is called the incarnation, a Latin word meaning "in flesh."  Did God really become human?  And, if so, did God cease to be God?

Il dialogo tra Fortuna e Tutankhamen sui futuri abitanti dell'epoca moderna

  For listeners of a certain age, a song about King Tutankhamen immediately brings Steve Martin to the mind's theater. His “King Tut” mock-reprimanded the commercialization of the Treasures of Tutankhamen exhibit that toured from 1976 to '79.  But this one, “Old King Tut”, was recorded in 1923, the year AFTER the ancient Pharaoh's tomb was found. Howard Carter and company made the discovery at a time when many had abandoned the famous Valley of the Kings. Shortly after confirming the validity of their find, Carter sent a telegraph to the dig's sponsor, Lord Carnarvon: "At last have made wonderful discovery in Valley; a magnificent tomb with seals intact; re-covered same for your arrival; congratulations." But When Carnarvon arrived three weeks later, the team found that they'd not been the first visitors to the tomb: "At first, their enthusiasm was somewhat dampened, for at the top left-hand corner of the blocking were signs of re-closure, suggesting that the tomb had been entered during antiquity. They began by clearing the descending corridor, which also showed signs of a robber's efforts. By 4:00 pm on the afternoon of November 26th, the corridor was cleared and the team found a second door, again faced with plaster, stamped over with oval seals, and re-closed at the top left-hand corner. Not knowing what lay behind this doorway, Carter made a small hole in it and inserted a candle to test for foul gases. He then peered into the void beyond, reporting: "At first I could see nothing, the hot air escaping from the chamber causing the candle flame to flicker, but presently, as my eyes grew accustomed to the light, details of the room within emerged slowly from the mist, strange animals, statues, and gold - everywhere the glint of gold"."

Was Aleister Crowley the wickedest man in the world or was he just a hedonistic trickster? Geordie and Michelle get into some of the great occultist's jolliest japes and whether Led Zeppelin sold their souls for success. Was Crowley responsible for the Curse of Tutankhamen ?

the boys discuss Uri Geller, the international man of mystery, illusionist, conjurer, and psychic who has done amazing feats of magic like bending spoons and convincing people that he can bend spoons. Some of the people he convinced were the CIA, who have never been fooled at all by anything ever. He also sued Pokémon and bought an island where he claimed there was an Egyptian treasure, brought there by Scota, the mythological half-sister of Tutankhamen in Irish mythology, 3,500 years ago that he would find through dowsing! When someone finally got around to asking Geller how he bends spoons and finds ancient treasures there really could only be one answer ... can you guess what it was? You know the answer. Seriously, he told people it was aliens.

Tony's true Story about SproutsIT'S COZY AND WARM IN A JAR FOR SPROUTING SEEDS TO GROW QUICKLY. IT'S ALSO COZY AND WARM FOR MOLD AND BAD BACTERIA TO GROW INSIDE ANY SEED OR BEAN THAT IS THERE. AND ONCE INSIDE THAT BEAN ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE. BEWARE OF THE JAR AND MANY OTHER SYSTEMS. IT CAN POISON YOU. I WAS. REPEATED WASHINGS DOES NOT REMOVE IT. IT'S ALREADY EMBEDDED.------------------------------------------------------For most of my life I have always told myself, and the public, how good it was to eat GREEN food. That is, ALL edible green food. This is especially so of what the public calls "Sprouts".The word "sprouts" has been widely misused. 99% of people believe those small 1 inch to 3 inch green stems coming out of the ground are the sprouts. But they are not sprouts. They are the plants. They are full of nutrients that are important to the human body to stay healthy along with ALL the other green plants available from our gardens. But they are still the plant. Which are less valuable than the sprouts.A TRUE SPROUT is the baby which comes out of the seed the day it is born to life. It has a little white tail attached to it. At that moment of birth, 100% of the “God and Nature" given nutrients are in existence. During the birth cycle afterbirth also comes out with the birth of the baby. Afterbirth is what colors the water surrounding the babies just born. It is very visible if you use the common jar system in which to grow them.  And isn't this a very cozy warm place for bad bacteria and mold to begin growing.At 35 years of age, when I started to read about nutrition in the public libraries in Toronto and Etobicoke, I learned that sprouts should be grown in Jars for simplicity. In fact almost any book you pick up today still states exactly the same thing. And most of the articles were written by scientists and scholars with degrees after their name. However the work to keep those baby sprouts both clean and healthy is more than most people want to endure. Ninety-nine percent of all people will give up using the glass-jar system because it is not convenient. People simply don't have the time or are not that interested in doing the daily chore of washing the baby sprouts to eliminate any contamination from the afterbirth. ( contamination means mold and bad bacteria ) The jar-method simply doesn’t work efficiently. In fact, any system where you put many seeds or beans on top of each other will automatically contaminate each other. And once contamination has taken place it is completely impossible to take it out of the seed.When I started growing sprouts, I did exactly what those books stated, every day for 3 years and in Jars. I grew them not because I just wanted healthy nutrition but because I HAD TO HAVE THE BEST NUTRITION. During those 3 years I experienced the daily chore of growing sprouts in a jar. It was not easy. And I, like others still think today, thought that I should let them grow 2 to 3 inches high to be of full value. I remember how each day, 3 to 5 times a day, I had to shake the jars back and forth to try to keep them from getting moldy and forming a bad smell. There were times I gave up and wanted to quit. But because of my need for greater nutrition I continued.I learned a lot during those 3 years. I became ill twice during that time. The second time my doctor recognized salmonella poisoning as a cause. I could not accept this nor could we pinpoint the source of the poisoning. But after telling him about everything I eat, it was suggested by the doctor that I look at the sprout growing that I did as the cause of my problem. That is the main reason why I changed to a more expensive sprout grower which claimed to eliminate 50% of the problem.It was during those years I also read in a religious book that plants have afterbirth like humans and animals. I learned that afterbirth can contaminate the baby during the birth cycle and care had to be taken that the baby would not be soaked with the afterbirth. It should be kept apart as much as possible. That is not easily done. And that is why I came up with the screen above the water in my system.After 3 years of using the jar system, I purchased a glass domed unit similar in appearance to the ones I sell today. That was 55 years ago. I paid $50.00 for that unit which by today's dollar value would be approximately $130.00 or more. Most people would never spend that kind of money for a simple sprout grower. But I did. I used that system up until I was 70 yrs of age. During that time of growing and eating sprouts and plants I never got ill with any type of sickness. Generally now I do not even get headaches and colds. Please read my health reports. - http://www.sproutgrowers.com/ At the bottom of the home page. According to that report and a very recent report I have not aged beyond 31 yrs mentally or physically. A copy of that second and third report has been added.When the baby comes out of the mother seed or bean (the Womb) “God and Nature” gives ALL nutrients to that baby that same day. It's a miracle no one has ever thoroughly explained in any analysis in any book on earth. Then at the same time that birth takes place "Genetics come into place to direct that baby into its adult form. The baby says "I want to look like my mother and father" the same color, the same texture, etc. This is identical in ALL births of any living things on earth. As a result the baby now starts to define which nutrients it should keep and expand on and those that should be discarded as not important in life. That is why different nutrients dominate in different plants. That is why I developed the sprout grower I am promoting. My passion for what I have created allows me to guarantee the products I sell to the public for life "unconditionally". I want people to get healthy on something I know will make them healthy. Sprouts when born are given ALL the nutrients they will need. ALL means all the enzymes we know of today and all the proteins we know about. And if you walked into a vitamin store and read the names on those some 3000 different manufactured products you would learn that every one of them were derived from a green plant, placed into a pill, bottled or packaged in powder form, and then sold to the public as a cure. The nutrients in those packages have been analyzed by scientists. Your one-month supply is just the beginning of a lifetime of investments that do little for your body.Generally the public do not want to work hard for their nutrients. A pill is convenient. That is why the Vitamin Stores have proliferated and succeeded in supplying the public with a simple alternative. But it is a very expensive and inadequate one. See how simple it is to grow in ONE DAY . Click on my SproutGrower note here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT-MLe7FRVAWe know that over 4000 enzymes all had their beginning in a green baby. The nuclei are in place. The same values are in place for proteins of which we know of 560 (according to articles I have read on the web). Every one of those 3000 different named vitamins on shelves in stores had to get their beginning in a baby sprout. Yet thousands of different supplements are an expense that most of the public cannot afford.Some articles in listings on the web - 2017 state that there are up to 20,000 different proteins in a human body. And up to 20,000 different enzymes known . But I could not find the list anywhere.We know that Mung beans when sprouted are sweet in taste. They are part of the Pea family. MOST but not all people love them the best because of their taste and simplicity to grow. One pound of beans can supply a person with one month of vegetables more healthy than any other vegetables in the world (see study about sprouts at University of Ulster in my LINK section on my website). Most Mung beans now come from China. As this is a main vegetable grown in China they have very strict rules about growing methods. Farmers there are very careful to make sure they are Organically grown. In India they are becoming much more organized now and are starting to implement stronger controls to grow Mung beans Organically.. I have been told that farmers in India are only paid from 1 cent to 5 cents per pound. Imagine 5 cents for one month of green vegetables at your table. Mung Beans are grown in every hot country in the world. Click on the following to see the nutrients in on seed with approx 7000 seeds in a pound. http://www.sproutgrowers.com/...UNGBEAN.htmI inventory up to two tons of Mung beans at any one time to supply those persons that are now eating sprouts more than any other vegetable. I have never told anyone they should not eat baby plants grown in jars. That is their decision in the way they want to grow and eat them. However I tell everyone the consequences of growing them in a jar or similar methods and to be very careful with the fast growth of salmonella and mold on the sprouts. Most people DO NOT clean them properly when they grow them in jars. Ninety percent of the systems sold in stores produce salmonella. Yet people do not find that out until after they start using those sprouters. Incidentally, in India the most common methods are growing them on a wet towel or on a plate with water. Both these methods cause mold and salmonella growth resulting in sickness. Just think about what happens on a towel. The afterbirth is soaked up by the towel and then is also soaked up by the babies at the same time, causing growth of bad bacteria.When purchasing Sprouts or small plants in a store you should know what kind of water they used to grow them with. Is it pure and clean ?. Do they change the water during the growth cycle ?I passionately believe that growing sprouts for health is something that should be taught to children at schools across the world. They can learn about life, nutrition, health, and learn skills of empathy, caring and nurturing along the way. To promote this, I offer every teacher that calls me personally a sprouter for their classroom, for free. Following the method of instruction with each unit, allowing the children to taste the life force in every bean, is an experience I believe will change their lives for the better. My name is Tony Hornick. I offer Tony’s Sprouter to you for your health.Tutankhamen was an Egyptian pharaoh. Seeds and Beans were found in his tomb. According to written reports some of the Mung beans sprouted when water was placed on them. It is amazing that mothers after 3300 years laying in a tomb can have babies. God and Nature is surely miraculous. We really have much to learn in life. https://parkbench.com/blog/sprout-growers-healthy-living-mill-pond-richmond-hill-tony-hornick

Egypt’s crucial tourism sector was recovering from the 2011 revolution, a 2013 coup and consistent Islamist threats, the billion dollar industry finds itself preparing for a possible attack from the new coronavirus. Egypt’s sudden declaration of 45 new coronavirus cases from the single ship, a drastic spike from its previous countrywide record of three, sparked fears the disease was far more widely spread in the country of 100 million people. Luxor, home to the iconic Valley of the Kings and Tutankhamen’s tomb, is now the center of the country’s COVID-19 outbreak. Last weekend, 45 passengers and crew members aboard the cruise ship, ‘A Sara’, tested positive for the virus. On Sunday the government confirmed the country’s and Africa’s first fatality from the illness. The North African nation had reported 59 infections by Wednesday. Despite this, the tourism and antiquities minister Khaled al-Anany and Egyptian officials continue to be reassuring. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support Learn more about your ad choices.

In the future a launch to the Planet Mars takes place, where a robotic explorer finds a mysterious marking on the wall of a lava tube. A vast underground city is found. The Earth is swept up in the excitement of Martian-mania. From there we shift from the Planet Mars to the discovery of the Tomb of Tutankhamen in the 1920s. What does the popular TV show Downton Abbey have to do with King Tutankhamun? Howard Carter, Lord Carnarvon, and Highclere Castle are discussed. An actual recording of Howard Carter is included in the podcast. From there the podcast explores the strange phenomenon called Egyptomania. Rob Cain reviews the book The Egyptologist and has on the show the 5-times published novelist Arthur Phillips. Phillips is a graduate of Harvard University and now lives in New York City. Phillips started out as a child actor, and held such jobs as a speech writer, jazz musician, and advertising copywriter. He is also a 5-time champion on the TV game show Jeopardy. Phillips is a TV and movie script writer working for FX, Netflix, HBO, and Sundance. The Egyptologist is structured as journals, letters, telegrams, and drawings, from several different points of view. The main story is set in 1922 and follows a hopeful explorer who, working near Howard Carter (the man who discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun), risks more and more of his life and savings on an apparently Quixotic effort to find the tomb of an apocryphal Egyptian king. If you like to go on a dig, the book is for you. If you're a part time detective, this book will fill that need as well. Phillips takes us on an adventure.

  For listeners of a certain age, a song about King Tutankhamen immediately brings Steve Martin to the mind’s theater. His “King Tut” mock-reprimanded the commercialization of the Treasures of Tutankhamen exhibit that toured from 1976 to ’79.  But this one, “Old King Tut”, was recorded in 1923, the year AFTER the ancient Pharaoh’s tomb […]

Lucy talks with Egyptologists Dr Colleen Darnell and Professor John Darnell to reflect on the enduring cultural and sartorial appeal of the land and history of Tutankhamen. From rampant consumerism to studied attention to detail, the conversation considers the use, and misuse, of all things Egypt from the Twenties to today. In this trans-Atlantic chat, topics include vintage dress, sustainability, and the practicalities of sticking to a clothing theme when house cleaning.  Fittingly, this episode is brought to you in conjunction with Penhaligon’s evocative Cairo fragrance.

Welcome, hello, G’Day, hi, we are glad to announce the latest episode from Nerds Amalgamated is here. We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed recording it for you. Also as Supanova Brisbane has now happened we have to say thank you to all those who stopped by the booth, it was fantastic to meet you all. We hope everyone enjoyed the week end and have lots of photos to remember how cool it was. It was awesome seeing so many amazing cosplayers and catching up with our friends from Comics2Movies, the Sons of Obiwan, Jamie Johnson, Super Tee, Cyanide Pop Press among so many others. First up this week we have facial recognition drones being utilised by Police Scotland to help find people who get lost. That’s right folks, AI drones using facial recognition to find individuals. Now, we know what you are thinking, hang on, this is a problem, next we know it will be used for… You will need to listen in to find out more. But we are sure you will enjoy it and have a laugh. Second, we have news that is promising for game developers and gamers all over the world. Yep, that is a bold claim, but we are sure you will agree when you hear it. Those legends at Take Two have discussed the future of gaming and the expectations of a drop in the costs of game development. What is suggested is great and worth looking forward to. We have some fun on this topic and really get into it. Our third topic for the week is about Stargate Command. No, the Goa'uld aren’t attacking, and the Wraith haven’t found the way through the Stargate to our universe. No, it is sad news, but possibly good news also. That’s right, a little bit of good news to look forward to that off sets the bad news. Now for the fans of Stargate this news is pretty big, and for those who need to evolve their appreciation then you better hurry up. The Professor and Buck are now contemplating a marathon viewing based on this news. Want to know what this news is you know what to do. As normal we have the shout outs, birthdays, remembrances, and special events. As always, thank you for listening, take care of yourselve’s, look out for each other and stay hydrated.Facial Recognition Drones - https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-50262650Take Two’s hot take on Next gen - https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-09-19-next-gen-wont-see-dev-costs-spike-take-twoMGM shutting down Stargate Command - https://boundingintocomics.com/2019/11/01/mgm-shuts-down-stargate-command/Games currently playingBuck– Call OF Duty WW2 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/476600/Call_of_Duty_WWII/Prof– Call Of Duty WW2 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/476600/Call_of_Duty_WWII/DJ- Did Not PlayOther topics discussedDrone Interrupts soccer match- https://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/oct/15/albania-charged-uefa-serbiaChinese police anti drone guns- https://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/2079045/chinese-police-force-equipped-anti-drone-gunsHong Kong bans make up- https://boingboing.net/2019/10/05/facially-absurd.htmlHong Kong ban masks- https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/10/hong-kong-protesters-rally-ban-wearing-masks-191004144726630.htmlDutch police use eagles to hunt drones- https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/12/16767000/police-netherlands-eagles-rogue-drones‘Missing’ Icelandic tourist- https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/missing-icelandic-tourist-goes-in-search-of-herself-8096831.htmlAn Aspie Life (PC Game)- https://store.steampowered.com/app/786410/An_Aspie_Life/Joseph Mallozzi’s blog post on the future of Stargate Command site- https://josephmallozzi.com/2019/10/31/october-31-2019-stargate-command-and-the-future-of-stargate/New Melbourne Brown Coats (Firefly & Serenity fan club in Melbourne Victoria)- https://www.facebook.com/newmelbournebrowncoats/Drostand Hynd (Call of Duty : WWII Character voiced by David Tennent)- https://callofduty.fandom.com/wiki/Drostan_HyndThe Monuments Men (2014 war film directed by George Clooney, and written and produced by Clooney and Grant Heslov.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Monuments_MenCanadarm (also known as Shuttle Remote Manipulator System (SRMS))- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CanadarmChicken Run 2- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_Run_2Hulk (2003 American superhero film directed by Ang Lee based on the fictionalMarvel Comicscharacter of the same name.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hulk_(film)Lou Ferrigno (American actor, fitness trainer, fitness consultant and retired professional bodybuilder)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_FerrignoThe Incredible Hulk (2008 American superhero film directed by Louis Leterrier based on the Marvel Comics character the Hulk, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Universal Pictures)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Incredible_Hulk_(film)Shoutouts4 Nov 1922 – In Egypt, British archaeologist Howard Carter and his men find the entrance to Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings. Thus, began a monumental excavation process in which Carter carefully explored the four-room tomb over several years, uncovering an incredible collection of several thousand objects. The most splendid architectural find was a stone sarcophagus containing three coffins nested within each other. Inside the final coffin, which was made from solid gold, was the mummy of the boy-king Tutankhamen, preserved for more than 3,000 years. Most of these treasures are now housed in the Cairo Museum. - https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/entrance-to-king-tuts-tomb-discovered4 Nov 1942 – Disobeying a direct order by Adolf Hitler, General Field Marshal Erwin Rommel begins a retreat of his forces after a costly defeat during the Second Battle of El Alamein.

1922 British archaeologist Howard Carter and his workmen discover a step leading to the tomb of King Tutankhamen in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. After World War I, Carter began an intensive search for “King Tut's Tomb,” finally finding steps to the burial room hidden in the debris near the entrance of the nearby tomb of King Ramses VI in the Valley of the Kings. On November 26, 1922, Carter and fellow archaeologist Lord Carnarvon entered the interior chambers of the tomb, finding them miraculously intact. Thus began a monumental excavation process in which Carter carefully explored the four-room tomb over several years, uncovering an incredible collection of several thousand objects. The most splendid architectural find was a stone sarcophagus containing three coffins nested within each other. Inside the final coffin, which was made out of solid gold, was the mummy of the boy-king Tutankhamen, preserved for more than 3,000 years. Most of these treasures are now housed in the Cairo Museum. 1956 A spontaneous national uprising that began 12 days before in Hungary is viciously crushed by Soviet tanks and troops on November 4, 1956. Thousands were killed and wounded and nearly a quarter-million Hungarians fled the country. The problems in Hungary began in October 1956, when thousands of protesters took to the streets demanding a more democratic political system and freedom from Soviet oppression. In response, Communist Party officials appointed Imre Nagy, a former premier who had been dismissed from the party for his criticisms of Stalinist policies, as the new premier. Nagy tried to restore peace and asked the Soviets to withdraw their troops. The Soviets did so, but Nagy then tried to push the Hungarian revolt forward by abolishing one-party rule. He also announced that Hungary was withdrawing from the Warsaw Pact (the Soviet bloc's equivalent of NATO). Soviet tanks rolled into Budapest to crush, once and for all, the national uprising. Vicious street fighting broke out, but the Soviets' great power ensured victory. At 5:20 a.m., Hungarian Prime Minister Imre Nagy announced the invasion to the nation in a grim, 35-second broadcast, declaring: “Our troops are fighting. The Government is in place.” Within hours, though, Nagy sought asylum at the Yugoslav Embassy in Budapest. He was captured shortly thereafter and executed two years later. 1995 Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin is fatally shot after attending a peace rally held in Tel Aviv's Kings Square in Israel. Rabin later died in surgery. The 73-year-old prime minister was walking to his car when he was shot in the arm and the back by Yigal Amir, a 27-year-old Jewish law student who had connections to the far-right Jewish group Eyal. Israeli police arrested Amir at the scene of the shooting, and he later confessed to the assassination, explaining at his arraignment that he killed Rabin because the prime minister wanted “to give our country to the Arabs.” Born in Jerusalem, Rabin was a leader of the Arab-Israeli war of 1948 and served as chief-of-staff of Israel's armed forces during the Six-Day War of 1967. After serving as Israel's ambassador to the United States, Rabin entered the Labour Party and became prime minister in 1974. In 1977, Rabin resigned as prime minister over a scandal involving his holding of bank accounts in the United States in violation of Israeli law. In 1992, Rabin led the Labour Party to election victory and became Israel's prime minister again. In 1993, he signed the historic Israeli-Palestinian Declaration of Principles with Palestinian leader Yasir Arafat and in 1994 concluded a formal peace agreement with the Palestinians.

Curses have played a significant role in human history for over 4,000 years. Is it possible that supernatural forces can inflict harm, punishment or cause bad luck to befall us? Or is there another explanation? In our search for answers we examine some of the most intriguing curses including: the disappearance of Bill Barilko, James Dean’s killer Porsche, Robert Johnson’s deal with the Devil and King Tutankhamen’s revenge from beyond the grave. Knock on wood.

When he was born, about 1342 BC, Tutankhaten's life wasn't his own. But the boy who would become known to us as Tutankhamen would be especially noteworthy because even in death his story isn't his own.

WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN... Seriously. Do it. Do it now. Okay, sit down, you look ridiculous. This week on the podcast, we have a 1983 Parker Bros. game about looting ancient Egyptian ruler King Tut's tomb. The game is called TUTANKHAM, and is apparently so good, you won't have time to put the last "en" on the name before you must rush off to play it. Do we agree? More importantly, what stories has the mysterious ancient tomb left to tell?

Neo-Nazi groups state King Tutankhamun had been "white," including YouTube videos with titles such as King Tutankhamun's Aryan DNA Results, while others angrily condemned the entire claim as a racist hoax. It played, once again, into the long-running battle over the king's racial origins. While some worried about a Jewish connection, the argument over whether the king was black or white has inflamed fanatics worldwide. Far-right groups have used blood group data to claim that the ancient Egyptians were in fact Nordic, while others have been desperate to define the pharaohs as black African. A 1970s show of Tutankhamun's treasures triggered demonstrations arguing that his African heritage was being denied, while the blockbusting 2005 tour was hit by protests in Los Angeles, when demonstrators argued that the reconstruction of the king's face built from CT scan data was not sufficiently "black."

This week Danny does the last ever 'Educating Peter', the issue of 'macho' men rears its head, and Pete reveals what type of man Tutankhamen was.

The Melchizedek Teachings in the Levant (1042.1) 95:0.1 AS INDIA gave rise to many of the religions and philosophies of eastern Asia, so the Levant was the homeland of the faiths of the Occidental world. The Salem missionaries spread out all over southwestern Asia, through Palestine, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Iran, and Arabia, everywhere proclaiming the good news of the gospel of Machiventa Melchizedek. In some of these lands their teachings bore fruit; in others they met with varying success. Sometimes their failures were due to lack of wisdom, sometimes to circumstances beyond their control. 1. The Salem Religion in Mesopotamia (1042.2) 95:1.1 By 2000 B.C. the religions of Mesopotamia had just about lost the teachings of the Sethites and were largely under the influence of the primitive beliefs of two groups of invaders, the Bedouin Semites who had filtered in from the western desert and the barbarian horsemen who had come down from the north. (1042.3) 95:1.2 But the custom of the early Adamite peoples in honoring the seventh day of the week never completely disappeared in Mesopotamia. Only, during the Melchizedek era, the seventh day was regarded as the worst of bad luck. It was taboo-ridden; it was unlawful to go on a journey, cook food, or make a fire on the evil seventh day. The Jews carried back to Palestine many of the Mesopotamian taboos which they had found resting on the Babylonian observance of the seventh day, the Shabattum. (1042.4) 95:1.3 Although the Salem teachers did much to refine and uplift the religions of Mesopotamia, they did not succeed in bringing the various peoples to the permanent recognition of one God. Such teaching gained the ascendancy for more than one hundred and fifty years and then gradually gave way to the older belief in a multiplicity of deities.* (1042.5) 95:1.4 The Salem teachers greatly reduced the number of the gods of Mesopotamia, at one time bringing the chief deities down to seven: Bel, Shamash, Nabu, Anu, Ea, Marduk, and Sin. At the height of the new teaching they exalted three of these gods to supremacy over all others, the Babylonian triad: Bel, Ea, and Anu, the gods of earth, sea, and sky. Still other triads grew up in different localities, all reminiscent of the trinity teachings of the Andites and the Sumerians and based on the belief of the Salemites in Melchizedek’s insignia of the three circles. (1042.6) 95:1.5 Never did the Salem teachers fully overcome the popularity of Ishtar, the mother of gods and the spirit of sex fertility. They did much to refine the worship of this goddess, but the Babylonians and their neighbors had never completely outgrown their disguised forms of sex worship. It had become a universal practice throughout Mesopotamia for all women to submit, at least once in early life, to the embrace of strangers; this was thought to be a devotion required by Ishtar, and it was believed that fertility was largely dependent on this sex sacrifice. (1043.1) 95:1.6 The early progress of the Melchizedek teaching was highly gratifying until Nabodad, the leader of the school at Kish, decided to make a concerted attack upon the prevalent practices of temple harlotry. But the Salem missionaries failed in their effort to bring about this social reform, and in the wreck of this failure all their more important spiritual and philosophic teachings went down in defeat. (1043.2) 95:1.7 This defeat of the Salem gospel was immediately followed by a great increase in the cult of Ishtar, a ritual which had already invaded Palestine as Ashtoreth, Egypt as Isis, Greece as Aphrodite, and the northern tribes as Astarte. And it was in connection with this revival of the worship of Ishtar that the Babylonian priests turned anew to stargazing; astrology experienced its last great Mesopotamian revival, fortunetelling became the vogue, and for centuries the priesthood increasingly deteriorated. (1043.3) 95:1.8 Melchizedek had warned his followers to teach about the one God, the Father and Maker of all, and to preach only the gospel of divine favor through faith alone. But it has often been the error of the teachers of new truth to attempt too much, to attempt to supplant slow evolution by sudden revolution. The Melchizedek missionaries in Mesopotamia raised a moral standard too high for the people; they attempted too much, and their noble cause went down in defeat. They had been commissioned to preach a definite gospel, to proclaim the truth of the reality of the Universal Father, but they became entangled in the apparently worthy cause of reforming the mores, and thus was their great mission sidetracked and virtually lost in frustration and oblivion. (1043.4) 95:1.9 In one generation the Salem headquarters at Kish came to an end, and the propaganda of the belief in one God virtually ceased throughout Mesopotamia. But remnants of the Salem schools persisted. Small bands scattered here and there continued their belief in the one Creator and fought against the idolatry and immorality of the Mesopotamian priests. (1043.5) 95:1.10 It was the Salem missionaries of the period following the rejection of their teaching who wrote many of the Old Testament Psalms, inscribing them on stone, where later-day Hebrew priests found them during the captivity and subsequently incorporated them among the collection of hymns ascribed to Jewish authorship. These beautiful psalms from Babylon were not written in the temples of Bel-Marduk; they were the work of the descendants of the earlier Salem missionaries, and they are a striking contrast to the magical conglomerations of the Babylonian priests. The Book of Job is a fairly good reflection of the teachings of the Salem school at Kish and throughout Mesopotamia. (1043.6) 95:1.11 Much of the Mesopotamian religious culture found its way into Hebrew literature and liturgy by way of Egypt through the work of Amenemope and Ikhnaton. The Egyptians remarkably preserved the teachings of social obligation derived from the earlier Andite Mesopotamians and so largely lost by the later Babylonians who occupied the Euphrates valley. 2. Early Egyptian Religion (1043.7) 95:2.1 The original Melchizedek teachings really took their deepest root in Egypt, from where they subsequently spread to Europe. The evolutionary religion of the Nile valley was periodically augmented by the arrival of superior strains of Nodite, Adamite, and later Andite peoples of the Euphrates valley. From time to time, many of the Egyptian civil administrators were Sumerians. As India in these days harbored the highest mixture of the world races, so Egypt fostered the most thoroughly blended type of religious philosophy to be found on Urantia, and from the Nile valley it spread to many parts of the world. The Jews received much of their idea of the creation of the world from the Babylonians, but they derived the concept of divine Providence from the Egyptians. (1044.1) 95:2.2 It was political and moral, rather than philosophic or religious, tendencies that rendered Egypt more favorable to the Salem teaching than Mesopotamia. Each tribal leader in Egypt, after fighting his way to the throne, sought to perpetuate his dynasty by proclaiming his tribal god the original deity and creator of all other gods. In this way the Egyptians gradually got used to the idea of a supergod, a steppingstone to the later doctrine of a universal creator Deity. The idea of monotheism wavered back and forth in Egypt for many centuries, the belief in one God always gaining ground but never quite dominating the evolving concepts of polytheism. (1044.2) 95:2.3 For ages the Egyptian peoples had been given to the worship of nature gods; more particularly did each of the two-score separate tribes have a special group god, one worshiping the bull, another the lion, a third the ram, and so on. Still earlier they had been totem tribes, very much like the Amerinds. (1044.3) 95:2.4 In time the Egyptians observed that dead bodies placed in brickless graves were preserved — embalmed — by the action of the soda-impregnated sand, while those buried in brick vaults decayed. These observations led to those experiments which resulted in the later practice of embalming the dead. The Egyptians believed that preservation of the body facilitated one’s passage through the future life. That the individual might properly be identified in the distant future after the decay of the body, they placed a burial statue in the tomb along with the corpse, carving a likeness on the coffin. The making of these burial statues led to great improvement in Egyptian art. (1044.4) 95:2.5 For centuries the Egyptians placed their faith in tombs as the safeguard of the body and of consequent pleasurable survival after death. The later evolution of magical practices, while burdensome to life from the cradle to the grave, most effectually delivered them from the religion of the tombs. The priests would inscribe the coffins with charm texts which were believed to be protection against a “man’s having his heart taken away from him in the nether world.” Presently a diverse assortment of these magical texts was collected and preserved as The Book of the Dead. But in the Nile valley magical ritual early became involved with the realms of conscience and character to a degree not often attained by the rituals of those days. And subsequently these ethical and moral ideals, rather than elaborate tombs, were depended upon for salvation. (1044.5) 95:2.6 The superstitions of these times are well illustrated by the general belief in the efficacy of spittle as a healing agent, an idea which had its origin in Egypt and spread therefrom to Arabia and Mesopotamia. In the legendary battle of Horus with Set the young god lost his eye, but after Set was vanquished, this eye was restored by the wise god Thoth, who spat upon the wound and healed it. (1044.6) 95:2.7 The Egyptians long believed that the stars twinkling in the night sky represented the survival of the souls of the worthy dead; other survivors they thought were absorbed into the sun. During a certain period, solar veneration became a species of ancestor worship. The sloping entrance passage of the great pyramid pointed directly toward the Pole Star so that the soul of the king, when emerging from the tomb, could go straight to the stationary and established constellations of the fixed stars, the supposed abode of the kings. (1045.1) 95:2.8 When the oblique rays of the sun were observed penetrating earthward through an aperture in the clouds, it was believed that they betokened the letting down of a celestial stairway whereon the king and other righteous souls might ascend. “King Pepi has put down his radiance as a stairway under his feet whereon to ascend to his mother.” (1045.2) 95:2.9 When Melchizedek appeared in the flesh, the Egyptians had a religion far above that of the surrounding peoples. They believed that a disembodied soul, if properly armed with magic formulas, could evade the intervening evil spirits and make its way to the judgment hall of Osiris, where, if innocent of “murder, robbery, falsehood, adultery, theft, and selfishness,” it would be admitted to the realms of bliss. If this soul were weighed in the balances and found wanting, it would be consigned to hell, to the Devouress. And this was, relatively, an advanced concept of a future life in comparison with the beliefs of many surrounding peoples. (1045.3) 95:2.10 The concept of judgment in the hereafter for the sins of one’s life in the flesh on earth was carried over into Hebrew theology from Egypt. The word judgment appears only once in the entire Book of Hebrew Psalms, and that particular psalm was written by an Egyptian. 3. Evolution of Moral Concepts (1045.4) 95:3.1 Although the culture and religion of Egypt were chiefly derived from Andite Mesopotamia and largely transmitted to subsequent civilizations through the Hebrews and Greeks, much, very much, of the social and ethical idealism of the Egyptians arose in the valley of the Nile as a purely evolutionary development. Notwithstanding the importation of much truth and culture of Andite origin, there evolved in Egypt more of moral culture as a purely human development than appeared by similar natural techniques in any other circumscribed area prior to the bestowal of Michael. (1045.5) 95:3.2 Moral evolution is not wholly dependent on revelation. High moral concepts can be derived from man’s own experience. Man can even evolve spiritual values and derive cosmic insight from his personal experiential living because a divine spirit indwells him. Such natural evolutions of conscience and character were also augmented by the periodic arrival of teachers of truth, in ancient times from the second Eden, later on from Melchizedek’s headquarters at Salem. (1045.6) 95:3.3 Thousands of years before the Salem gospel penetrated to Egypt, its moral leaders taught justice, fairness, and the avoidance of avarice. Three thousand years before the Hebrew scriptures were written, the motto of the Egyptians was: “Established is the man whose standard is righteousness; who walks according to its way.” They taught gentleness, moderation, and discretion. The message of one of the great teachers of this epoch was: “Do right and deal justly with all.” The Egyptian triad of this age was Truth-Justice-Righteousness. Of all the purely human religions of Urantia none ever surpassed the social ideals and the moral grandeur of this onetime humanism of the Nile valley. (1045.7) 95:3.4 In the soil of these evolving ethical ideas and moral ideals the surviving doctrines of the Salem religion flourished. The concepts of good and evil found ready response in the hearts of a people who believed that “Life is given to the peaceful and death to the guilty.” “The peaceful is he who does what is loved; the guilty is he who does what is hated.” For centuries the inhabitants of the Nile valley had lived by these emerging ethical and social standards before they ever entertained the later concepts of right and wrong — good and bad. (1046.1) 95:3.5 Egypt was intellectual and moral but not overly spiritual. In six thousand years only four great prophets arose among the Egyptians. Amenemope they followed for a season; Okhban they murdered; Ikhnaton they accepted but halfheartedly for one short generation; Moses they rejected. Again was it political rather than religious circumstances that made it easy for Abraham and, later on, for Joseph to exert great influence throughout Egypt in behalf of the Salem teachings of one God. But when the Salem missionaries first entered Egypt, they encountered this highly ethical culture of evolution blended with the modified moral standards of Mesopotamian immigrants. These early Nile valley teachers were the first to proclaim conscience as the mandate of God, the voice of Deity. 4. The Teachings of Amenemope (1046.2) 95:4.1 In due time there grew up in Egypt a teacher called by many the “son of man” and by others Amenemope. This seer exalted conscience to its highest pinnacle of arbitrament between right and wrong, taught punishment for sin, and proclaimed salvation through calling upon the solar deity. (1046.3) 95:4.2 Amenemope taught that riches and fortune were the gift of God, and this concept thoroughly colored the later appearing Hebrew philosophy. This noble teacher believed that God-consciousness was the determining factor in all conduct; that every moment should be lived in the realization of the presence of, and responsibility to, God. The teachings of this sage were subsequently translated into Hebrew and became the sacred book of that people long before the Old Testament was reduced to writing. The chief preachment of this good man had to do with instructing his son in uprightness and honesty in governmental positions of trust, and these noble sentiments of long ago would do honor to any modern statesman. (1046.4) 95:4.3 This wise man of the Nile taught that “riches take themselves wings and fly away” — that all things earthly are evanescent. His great prayer was to be “saved from fear.” He exhorted all to turn away from “the words of men” to “the acts of God.” In substance he taught: Man proposes but God disposes. His teachings, translated into Hebrew, determined the philosophy of the Old Testament Book of Proverbs. Translated into Greek, they gave color to all subsequent Hellenic religious philosophy. The later Alexandrian philosopher, Philo, possessed a copy of the Book of Wisdom. (1046.5) 95:4.4 Amenemope functioned to conserve the ethics of evolution and the morals of revelation and in his writings passed them on both to the Hebrews and to the Greeks. He was not the greatest of the religious teachers of this age, but he was the most influential in that he colored the subsequent thought of two vital links in the growth of Occidental civilization — the Hebrews, among whom evolved the acme of Occidental religious faith, and the Greeks, who developed pure philosophic thought to its greatest European heights. (1046.6) 95:4.5 In the Book of Hebrew Proverbs, chapters fifteen, seventeen, twenty, and chapter twenty-two, verse seventeen, to chapter twenty-four, verse twenty-two, are taken almost verbatim from Amenemope’s Book of Wisdom. The first psalm of the Hebrew Book of Psalms was written by Amenemope and is the heart of the teachings of Ikhnaton. 5. The Remarkable Ikhnaton (1047.1) 95:5.1 The teachings of Amenemope were slowly losing their hold on the Egyptian mind when, through the influence of an Egyptian Salemite physician, a woman of the royal family espoused the Melchizedek teachings. This woman prevailed upon her son, Ikhnaton, Pharaoh of Egypt, to accept these doctrines of One God. (1047.2) 95:5.2 Since the disappearance of Melchizedek in the flesh, no human being up to that time had possessed such an amazingly clear concept of the revealed religion of Salem as Ikhnaton. In some respects this young Egyptian king is one of the most remarkable persons in human history. During this time of increasing spiritual depression in Mesopotamia, he kept alive the doctrine of El Elyon, the One God, in Egypt, thus maintaining the philosophic monotheistic channel which was vital to the religious background of the then future bestowal of Michael. And it was in recognition of this exploit, among other reasons, that the child Jesus was taken to Egypt, where some of the spiritual successors of Ikhnaton saw him and to some extent understood certain phases of his divine mission to Urantia. (1047.3) 95:5.3 Moses, the greatest character between Melchizedek and Jesus, was the joint gift to the world of the Hebrew race and the Egyptian royal family; and had Ikhnaton possessed the versatility and ability of Moses, had he manifested a political genius to match his surprising religious leadership, then would Egypt have become the great monotheistic nation of that age; and if this had happened, it is barely possible that Jesus might have lived the greater portion of his mortal life in Egypt. (1047.4) 95:5.4 Never in all history did any king so methodically proceed to swing a whole nation from polytheism to monotheism as did this extraordinary Ikhnaton. With the most amazing determination this young ruler broke with the past, changed his name, abandoned his capital, built an entirely new city, and created a new art and literature for a whole people. But he went too fast; he built too much, more than could stand when he had gone. Again, he failed to provide for the material stability and prosperity of his people, all of which reacted unfavorably against his religious teachings when the subsequent floods of adversity and oppression swept over the Egyptians. (1047.5) 95:5.5 Had this man of amazingly clear vision and extraordinary singleness of purpose had the political sagacity of Moses, he would have changed the whole history of the evolution of religion and the revelation of truth in the Occidental world. During his lifetime he was able to curb the activities of the priests, whom he generally discredited, but they maintained their cults in secret and sprang into action as soon as the young king passed from power; and they were not slow to connect all of Egypt’s subsequent troubles with the establishment of monotheism during his reign. (1047.6) 95:5.6 Very wisely Ikhnaton sought to establish monotheism under the guise of the sun-god. This decision to approach the worship of the Universal Father by absorbing all gods into the worship of the sun was due to the counsel of the Salemite physician. Ikhnaton took the generalized doctrines of the then existent Aton faith regarding the fatherhood and motherhood of Deity and created a religion which recognized an intimate worshipful relation between man and God. (1048.1) 95:5.7 Ikhnaton was wise enough to maintain the outward worship of Aton, the sun-god, while he led his associates in the disguised worship of the One God, creator of Aton and supreme Father of all. This young teacher-king was a prolific writer, being author of the exposition entitled “The One God,” a book of thirty-one chapters, which the priests, when returned to power, utterly destroyed. Ikhnaton also wrote one hundred and thirty-seven hymns, twelve of which are now preserved in the Old Testament Book of Psalms, credited to Hebrew authorship. (1048.2) 95:5.8 The supreme word of Ikhnaton’s religion in daily life was “righteousness,” and he rapidly expanded the concept of right doing to embrace international as well as national ethics. This was a generation of amazing personal piety and was characterized by a genuine aspiration among the more intelligent men and women to find God and to know him. In those days social position or wealth gave no Egyptian any advantage in the eyes of the law. The family life of Egypt did much to preserve and augment moral culture and was the inspiration of the later superb family life of the Jews in Palestine. (1048.3) 95:5.9 The fatal weakness of Ikhnaton’s gospel was its greatest truth, the teaching that Aton was not only the creator of Egypt but also of the “whole world, man and beasts, and all the foreign lands, even Syria and Kush, besides this land of Egypt. He sets all in their place and provides all with their needs.” These concepts of Deity were high and exalted, but they were not nationalistic. Such sentiments of internationality in religion failed to augment the morale of the Egyptian army on the battlefield, while they provided effective weapons for the priests to use against the young king and his new religion. He had a Deity concept far above that of the later Hebrews, but it was too advanced to serve the purposes of a nation builder. (1048.4) 95:5.10 Though the monotheistic ideal suffered with the passing of Ikhnaton, the idea of one God persisted in the minds of many groups. The son-in-law of Ikhnaton went along with the priests, back to the worship of the old gods, changing his name to Tutankhamen. The capital returned to Thebes, and the priests waxed fat upon the land, eventually gaining possession of one seventh of all Egypt; and presently one of this same order of priests made bold to seize the crown. (1048.5) 95:5.11 But the priests could not fully overcome the monotheistic wave. Increasingly they were compelled to combine and hyphenate their gods; more and more the family of gods contracted. Ikhnaton had associated the flaming disc of the heavens with the creator God, and this idea continued to flame up in the hearts of men, even of the priests, long after the young reformer had passed on. Never did the concept of monotheism die out of the hearts of men in Egypt and in the world. It persisted even to the arrival of the Creator Son of that same divine Father, the one God whom Ikhnaton had so zealously proclaimed for the worship of all Egypt. (1048.6) 95:5.12 The weakness of Ikhnaton’s doctrine lay in the fact that he proposed such an advanced religion that only the educated Egyptians could fully comprehend his teachings. The rank and file of the agricultural laborers never really grasped his gospel and were, therefore, ready to return with the priests to the old-time worship of Isis and her consort Osiris, who was supposed to have been miraculously resurrected from a cruel death at the hands of Set, the god of darkness and evil. (1049.1) 95:5.13 The teaching of immortality for all men was too advanced for the Egyptians. Only kings and the rich were promised a resurrection; therefore did they so carefully embalm and preserve their bodies in tombs against the day of judgment. But the democracy of salvation and resurrection as taught by Ikhnaton eventually prevailed, even to the extent that the Egyptians later believed in the survival of dumb animals. (1049.2) 95:5.14 Although the effort of this Egyptian ruler to impose the worship of one God upon his people appeared to fail, it should be recorded that the repercussions of his work persisted for centuries both in Palestine and Greece, and that Egypt thus became the agent for transmitting the combined evolutionary culture of the Nile and the revelatory religion of the Euphrates to all of the subsequent peoples of the Occident. (1049.3) 95:5.15 The glory of this great era of moral development and spiritual growth in the Nile valley was rapidly passing at about the time the national life of the Hebrews was beginning, and consequent upon their sojourn in Egypt these Bedouins carried away much of these teachings and perpetuated many of Ikhnaton’s doctrines in their racial religion. 6. The Salem Doctrines in Iran (1049.4) 95:6.1 From Palestine some of the Melchizedek missionaries passed on through Mesopotamia and to the great Iranian plateau. For more than five hundred years the Salem teachers made headway in Iran, and the whole nation was swinging to the Melchizedek religion when a change of rulers precipitated a bitter persecution which practically ended the monotheistic teachings of the Salem cult. The doctrine of the Abrahamic covenant was virtually extinct in Persia when, in that great century of moral renaissance, the sixth before Christ, Zoroaster appeared to revive the smouldering embers of the Salem gospel. (1049.5) 95:6.2 This founder of a new religion was a virile and adventurous youth, who, on his first pilgrimage to Ur in Mesopotamia, had learned of the traditions of the Caligastia and the Lucifer rebellion — along with many other traditions — all of which had made a strong appeal to his religious nature. Accordingly, as the result of a dream while in Ur, he settled upon a program of returning to his northern home to undertake the remodeling of the religion of his people. He had imbibed the Hebraic idea of a God of justice, the Mosaic concept of divinity. The idea of a supreme God was clear in his mind, and he set down all other gods as devils, consigned them to the ranks of the demons of which he had heard in Mesopotamia. He had learned of the story of the Seven Master Spirits as the tradition lingered in Ur, and, accordingly, he created a galaxy of seven supreme gods with Ahura-Mazda at its head. These subordinate gods he associated with the idealization of Right Law, Good Thought, Noble Government, Holy Character, Health, and Immortality. (1049.6) 95:6.3 And this new religion was one of action — work — not prayers and rituals. Its God was a being of supreme wisdom and the patron of civilization; it was a militant religious philosophy which dared to battle with evil, inaction, and backwardness. (1049.7) 95:6.4 Zoroaster did not teach the worship of fire but sought to utilize the flame as a symbol of the pure and wise Spirit of universal and supreme dominance. (All too true, his later followers did both reverence and worship this symbolic fire.) Finally, upon the conversion of an Iranian prince, this new religion was spread by the sword. And Zoroaster heroically died in battle for that which he believed was the “truth of the Lord of light.” (1050.1) 95:6.5 Zoroastrianism is the only Urantian creed that perpetuates the Dalamatian and Edenic teachings about the Seven Master Spirits. While failing to evolve the Trinity concept, it did in a certain way approach that of God the Sevenfold. Original Zoroastrianism was not a pure dualism; though the early teachings did picture evil as a time co-ordinate of goodness, it was definitely eternity-submerged in the ultimate reality of the good. Only in later times did the belief gain credence that good and evil contended on equal terms. (1050.2) 95:6.6 The Jewish traditions of heaven and hell and the doctrine of devils as recorded in the Hebrew scriptures, while founded on the lingering traditions of Lucifer and Caligastia, were principally derived from the Zoroastrians during the times when the Jews were under the political and cultural dominance of the Persians. Zoroaster, like the Egyptians, taught the “day of judgment,” but he connected this event with the end of the world. (1050.3) 95:6.7 Even the religion which succeeded Zoroastrianism in Persia was markedly influenced by it. When the Iranian priests sought to overthrow the teachings of Zoroaster, they resurrected the ancient worship of Mithra. And Mithraism spread throughout the Levant and Mediterranean regions, being for some time a contemporary of both Judaism and Christianity. The teachings of Zoroaster thus came successively to impress three great religions: Judaism and Christianity and, through them, Mohammedanism. (1050.4) 95:6.8 But it is a far cry from the exalted teachings and noble psalms of Zoroaster to the modern perversions of his gospel by the Parsees with their great fear of the dead, coupled with the entertainment of beliefs in sophistries which Zoroaster never stooped to countenance. (1050.5) 95:6.9 This great man was one of that unique group that sprang up in the sixth century before Christ to keep the light of Salem from being fully and finally extinguished as it so dimly burned to show man in his darkened world the path of light leading to everlasting life. 7. The Salem Teachings in Arabia (1050.6) 95:7.1 The Melchizedek teachings of the one God became established in the Arabian desert at a comparatively recent date. As in Greece, so in Arabia the Salem missionaries failed because of their misunderstanding of Machiventa’s instructions regarding overorganization. But they were not thus hindered by their interpretation of his admonition against all efforts to extend the gospel through military force or civil compulsion. (1050.7) 95:7.2 Not even in China or Rome did the Melchizedek teachings fail more completely than in this desert region so very near Salem itself. Long after the majority of the peoples of the Orient and Occident had become respectively Buddhist and Christian, the desert of Arabia continued as it had for thousands of years. Each tribe worshiped its olden fetish, and many individual families had their own household gods. Long the struggle continued between Babylonian Ishtar, Hebrew Yahweh, Iranian Ahura, and Christian Father of the Lord Jesus Christ. Never was one concept able fully to displace the others. (1051.1) 95:7.3 Here and there throughout Arabia were families and clans that held on to the hazy idea of the one God. Such groups treasured the traditions of Melchizedek, Abraham, Moses, and Zoroaster. There were numerous centers that might have responded to the Jesusonian gospel, but the Christian missionaries of the desert lands were an austere and unyielding group in contrast with the compromisers and innovators who functioned as missionaries in the Mediterranean countries. Had the followers of Jesus taken more seriously his injunction to “go into all the world and preach the gospel,” and had they been more gracious in that preaching, less stringent in collateral social requirements of their own devising, then many lands would gladly have received the simple gospel of the carpenter’s son, Arabia among them. (1051.2) 95:7.4 Despite the fact that the great Levantine monotheisms failed to take root in Arabia, this desert land was capable of producing a faith which, though less demanding in its social requirements, was nonetheless monotheistic. (1051.3) 95:7.5 There was only one factor of a tribal, racial, or national nature about the primitive and unorganized beliefs of the desert, and that was the peculiar and general respect which almost all Arabian tribes were willing to pay to a certain black stone fetish in a certain temple at Mecca. This point of common contact and reverence subsequently led to the establishment of the Islamic religion. What Yahweh, the volcano spirit, was to the Jewish Semites, the Kaaba stone became to their Arabic cousins. (1051.4) 95:7.6 The strength of Islam has been its clear-cut and well-defined presentation of Allah as the one and only Deity; its weakness, the association of military force with its promulgation, together with its degradation of woman. But it has steadfastly held to its presentation of the One Universal Deity of all, “who knows the invisible and the visible. He is the merciful and the compassionate.” “Truly God is plenteous in goodness to all men.” “And when I am sick, it is he who heals me.” “For whenever as many as three speak together, God is present as a fourth,” for is he not “the first and the last, also the seen and the hidden”? (1051.5) 95:7.7 [Presented by a Melchizedek of Nebadon.]

Nubia M. Wardford, Anthropologist/Archaeologist Born and raised in the City of Detroit. Nubia became interested in geology and paleontology at the age of 7 while digging in the earth and researching stones, plants and animal fossils of Michigan. After reading about the treasures of Tutankhamen at age 8 she became sure that her life interest would be investigating and researching the accomplishments of early African civilizations. She taught science for grade levels Pre-K – grade 8, for ten years. She has dedicated a great deal of her life toward uplifting the Black community and will continue in this work. "There is much to be done. I am confident with the young brilliant minds that I have encountered are a small sample of the actual number just waiting for their chance." With a B. A. in Anthropology, she has worked at major museums in the Detroit area, such as the Wayne State University Anthropology Museum, The Henry Ford Museum, The Detroit Institute of Arts and now she is presently working as a registrar, which is the caretaker of the collections at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. Now she is proud to be involved in her greatest endeavor, which is the research and excavations of Ancient Nubia in the Sudan. She has recently been offered employment as an English instructor and a scholarship from the University of Khartoum in Sudan, where she will actively engage in the field study of The Sacred Cities of Ancient Nubia while teaching English and pursing her Masters degree and Ph. D in archaeology.
