Something Wonderful (Epi 18, S3)

from Ancient Rome Refocused Hosted by Ancient Rome Refocused

00:00 - 18:35 Come with us to Mars! What if a civilization was discovered on Mars? What if behind a stonewall, the remnants of a Martian Civilization was discovered? Ancient Rome Refocused presents a dramatic narration of how this could very much match an unusual mania that swept the world in the 1920s. Upon the discovery of King Tut's tomb, music, art, advertising, movies and fashion, reflected a mania for all things reflecting ancient Egypt. What is a dead Martian Civilization (like the Martians in the Ray Bradbury novel Martian Chronicles) were discovered beneath the surface? Let your imagination fly on this most unusual episode. Now that your thinking about it, let's review the Egypto-mania Craze that took over society in the early 20 century. 18:36 - 1:01:52 From there let's explore Rob's favorite book: THE EGYPTOLOGIST BY Arthur Phillips. The Egyptologist is structured as journals, letters, telegrams, and drawings, from several different points of view. The main story is set in 1922 and follows a hopeful explorer who, working near Howard Carter (the man who discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun), risks more and more of his life and savings on an apparently Quixotic effort to find the tomb of an apocryphal Egyptian king. It's a detective story. It is a detective story combined with archaeology. We are digging to find an Egyptian King, and the real identity of Ralph Trilipush. Phillips takes us on an adventure. I needed one. So do you.
