About this listen

 Far in the distance, three colossal shapes tower over the desert horizon…In this episode, we travel to the Nile Valley, and tell the story of one of the most iconic cultures ever produced by humankind – the civilizations of ancient Egypt. I want to show how this series of related cultures grew up in the floodplains of their great river, and built some of the most enduring and recognizable structures in the world. And I want to tell the story of what happened to bring the age of the Pharaohs finally and cataclysmically to an end.

Concise, informative and second to none. Simply the best IMO. I relisten to all of Paul's episodes and also watch their YouTube counterpart with accompanying video. Can't wait for more. I only fear we'll run out of civilisations.

Paul, as always, excellent delivery.
