Episode #221: Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie

We give a brief outline of the almost 3000 years of the ancient Egyptian timeline as currently understood by standard model archaeology. Dynasties, Periods, Kingdoms, what they are, when they occurred, how long they lasted. Hopefully this will help a bit when you read or hear things like "in the 19th dynasty" or "this is an Old Kingdom structure". Much thanks to listener Patty for suggesting we do this.

After that, Kyle reads selections from Petrie's The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh, specifically parts where Petrie is discussing his research on evidence for "anomalous" stone cutting evident on some artifacts from Egypt.

We also tested our ability to stream the recording of this episode live to Twitch. The livestream video should remain up on Twitch for a few weeks, check the channel here if you want to see it, it will give you a bit of "behind the scenes" details and the conversations we have during the breaks.

We're joined by Seriah from Where did the Road Go podcast for a swapcast discussion about our Egypt trip. Seriah always asks great questions, so we have an excellent discussion about our evolving thoughts on the things we learned, and the things we unlearned, during our two weeks in Egypt.

We continue our musings on the Egypt trip this week by responding to many excellent questions and comments from listeners by email and through the Discord server. (To join our Discord, click the connect button on our website here)

We learned a lot from that trip, but in the end we have no answers, only better questions.

Episode #218: Straight to Pyramids

We're back from our epic two week trip in Egypt with Ben from UnchartedX and Yousef from the Khemit School. We have many things to say about what we saw and experienced, and a mountain of photos and videos to go through.
For this episode we are joined in-studio by The Watcher to attempt to give an overview of our thoughts and some highlights of the trip. Expect many more episodes like this to come as we dive deeper into the questions we have about what we saw in Egypt.

Thanks so much to all of you who have listened to the show and supported us in various ways, this would not have happened without you!
