    A quite "lateral" approach to ancient egyptian history. Fresh and very entertaining. Surely a lot of new history will come to light in these wonderful conversations.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S01E08 Questions Episode
Q: What would you consider doing an episode on the misinformation about slavery in ancient Egypt?
Yes, there is a lot of misinformation, and we now have archaeological evidence that shows people who built the pyramids were quite well treated and not coerced into doing it.
S01E08 Questions Episode
Q: Why do Egyptologists use Greek names for ancient Egyptian cities?
The crucial point is the point at which we could read the Egyptian language, which occurred in 1822. Before that, Egyptologists relied on classical sources, which used the Greek names.
S01E08 Questions Episode
Q: With all the work done to construct the pyramids, do we have evidence of workplace accidents? Either bodies with reset bones or amputations?
No, we have no evidence for it whatsoever, but it would be astonishing if there weren't any accidents.
S01E09 Bonus Livestream
Q: Will you both be doing a second series of Talk Like An Egyptian?
Yes, they will be recording a second series in December and hope to release it in January.
S01E09 Bonus Livestream
Q: What do you guys think the next major discovery in ancient Egypt might be?
More tombs are likely to be discovered, particularly at places like Tapaziris Magna, it could yield significant findings related to Cleopatra.
