You can set a reminder on this video BUT if you prefer something more reliable to remind you via email, I made an eventbrite ticket for you.

Ancient Lives on the Nile is a series of 30-minute thematic videos about ancient Egypt. Inspired by television documentary formats, specifically Mysteries of the Bible from the 1990s, this series incorporates narrations, interviews, and readings from ancient sources (in translation). This series aims to interest the general public and scholars alike, as well as to grow and include interviews with other scholars for well-rounded perspectives concerning ancient Egypt. Furthermore, the series intends to present ancient Egyptian personhood, focusing on interpersonal relationships and the Egyptian voice.
