An Egyptologist's illustrated guide to 100 ancient Egyptian symbols and their meanings — protection, power, rebirth — and where to see each one in Egypt today.
An Egyptologist explains the Bennu — Egypt's sacred heron: the creation myth, why the phoenix's fire is a Greek invention, and why NASA named an asteroid after it.
An Egyptologist explains the sistrum — Hathor's sacred rattle: its two forms, the menat, why women played it, and the sound still heard in Coptic churches today.
An Egyptologist explains the uraeus — the rearing cobra on the pharaoh's crown: the goddess Wadjet, the Two Ladies, the Eye of Ra, and Tut's mask at the GEM.
The best time to visit Egypt is October–April; Feb–Mar and Oct–Nov are the sweet spots. Month-by-month weather, crowds & prices from a Cairo operator.
An Egyptologist explains the djed pillar: its meaning of stability, why it's the backbone of Osiris, the Raising of the Djed, and where to see it at Abydos.
An Egyptologist explains the crook and flail — the king as shepherd, why Osiris holds them, and where to see Tutankhamun's own pair at the GEM.
An Egyptologist explains the was scepter — its meaning of power and dominion, the Set-animal head, the ankh-djed-was triad, and where to see it in Egypt.
An Egyptologist explains the Egyptian cartouche: what it meant, the royal names inside, how it cracked hieroglyphs, and how to get your name in one.
An Egyptologist explains the Egyptian scarab beetle — Khepri, the rising sun and rebirth, heart scarabs, and where to see the giant scarab at Karnak.
