Description

Akenaten is one of Egypt’s most famous – and controversial – pharaohs. He ruled at the height of the Egyptian empire, upended tradition, established a new religion, and marked the end of a dynasty. Was he a prophetic or a heretic? A visionary or a madman? A brilliant diplomat or an indulgent wastrel? This tour will dive deep into the life and times of one of Egypt’s most unusual pharaohs to uncover what he truly did and why.

I am a Ph.D. student at the University of Pennsylvania, studying ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. I have worked on many topics, including frog-shaped stone vessels from the earliest periods of Egypt, the tombs of the Theban Necropolis, and Assyrian royal propaganda. I have also excavated in Egypt at the ancient town of Wah-Sut, a settlement for the workers of the temple of pharaoh Senwosret III.
