THE GOOD KINGS
Absolute Power in Ancient Egypt and the Modern World
Author KARA COONEY , Professor of Egyptian Art and Architecture at UCLA, also wrote When Women Ruled the World (2018) and The Woman Who Would be King (2014). She produced Out of Egypt on Discovery…
From Khufu, the man who built the Great Pyramid at Giza as testament to his authoritarian reign, and Taharqa, the last true pharaoh who worked to make Egypt great again, we discover a clear lens into understanding how power was earned, controlled, and manipulated in ancient times. And in mining the past, Cooney uncovers the reason why societies have so willingly chosen a dictator over democracy, time and time again.
THE STORY OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION THROUGH 100 KEY EXPEDITIONS
LOST CITIES, ANCIENT TOMBS
NatGeo editor and archaeologist, Ann R Williams, tells incredible stories of how explorers and archaeologists have uncovered the clues that illuminate our past – from the terracotta warriors escorting China’s first emperor into the afterlife to graves of the Scythians, the real Amazon warrior women, to new findings on the grim fate of the colonists of Jamestown. She specializes in ancient Egypt and is learning to read Egyptian hieroglyphs.
