As night deepens and the world quiets, we trace the serene yet transformative currents of ancient Egypts Amarna Period, a time of profound ideological shifts under Pharaoh Akhenaten. In the stillness of our thoughts, we wander through the echoes of Akhetaten, a city born from Akhenaten’s bold vision, where temples and art breathed life into a solitary sun disk worshiped above all. Here, amid whispers of sand and time, the marriage of political power and divine revelation unfolds, portrayed through tender, humanized art that broke with the rigid past. Let us drift into the heart of this ancient narrative, discovering the tranquil remnants of a revolution that forever altered the course of a civilization. This episode is hosted by Daniel Clark.
