""Open are the double doors of the horizon / Unlocked are its bolts.
Clouds darken the sky / The stars rain down / The constellations stagger / The bones of the hell hounds tremble."

The Met's rebroadcast of the #PhilipGlass #opera #Akhenaten this evening was really great!

#Egyptology #Nubiology Tomorrow in the #DiverseNile seminar series: dr Kate Spence (Emmanuel College) on “Living at #Sesebi: investigating the houses of the New Kingdom town". Seseni, in Northern Sudan, was constructed around 1352 BC by pharaoh #Akhenaten for people working at an Egyptian mining site. Research shows that some of them must have come from as far as Syria.

The question for me is not should Gal Gadot play Cleo, the question for me is why isn't there a glorious modern epic about the mysterious rule of the Aten???

A shabti from the reign of Akhenaten and dates to c.1353–1336 B.C. The existence of these shabtis during Akhenaten's reign suggests that some belief in an afterlife was present in the Aten theology. However it is notable that these particular Shabtis (made for Akhenaten) do not feature the traditional and typical shabti text and instead feature only names and titles of the Pharaoh. This suggests that this afterlife belief was not the same as the traditional pre-Amarna beliefs. Ultimately it is difficult to know for certain but these are fascinating artifacts nonetheless

Some people write code for computing… and I understand how valuable that is; there is a way to code to the Aten, and I sense Akhenaten is the greatest of all time for that.
