The civilization of ancient Egypt has long held a fascination for modern people. The Sphinx, the pharaohs, pyramids, mummies, and treasure all provide tantalizing clues to this enigmatic culture, whose architectural achievements stand like question marks in the desert sand. This program is the third episode in a four-volume series, hosted by Peter Woodward, which presents a fresh look at the Egyptians. Who were the people who built these mansions of the spirits? And what were their lives like? Archaeologists look for clues in burial sites in Mendes and Deir El Medina, where pyramid workers once lived. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
