Wonders of Ancient Egypt with Egyptologist, Dr. Yasmin El Shazly

In this exciting and illuminating episode we have the unique opportunity to talk with Egyptian Egyptologist, researcher and educator Dr. Yasmin El Shazly. We learn about her in depth research of the village of Deir el-Medina that housed the workmen who created the tombs in the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens. Through her love of the arts we explore the relationship between the art within the tombs and the sacred worship of the gods. We discuss the value of writing held by the ancient Egyptians and the power of the written word in their society. Yasmin's passion for her work and inspiring perspectives will leave you wanting to hop on the next flight to Egypt to experience the awe and mysteries of the pyramids for yourself!
