As Dan would say WHAT??!!Dan joins Bernie on this episode of What’s New In History where we learn that our hominid ancestors probably were “sailing” something like a HALF MILLION YEARS AGO! What sounds like a crazy theory at first will become much clearer after you hear our brilliant minds discuss this … as well as bigfoot, Chewbacca, South American monkeys, and UFOs.

A discussion with Professor Peter Brand about his latest book, Ramses II, Egypt’s Ultimate Pharaoh.Ramesses II was the most magnificent and iconic pharaoh in Egyptian history. His reign was the longest, the most “monumental” in buildings and artwork, the most innovative in diplomacy, and even the most procreative, with over one hundred royal offspring! Drawing on the latest research, Peter J. Brand digs deep into Egyptian culture and archeology, revealing the mindset and motivations of Ramesses II. We find what his grand monuments reveal, and equally what they conceal. On the international scene, we peruse the diplomatic letters—often surprising, sometimes amusing—between Pharaoh and the kings of Babylon, Assyria, and the Hittite Empire.About the Author:Dr. Peter J. Brand (PhD University of Toronto, 1998) is an ancient historian and Egyptologist specializing in history and culture of ancient Egypt during its imperial age (ca. 1550–1100 BCE). He is author of The Monuments of Seti I and their Historical Significance: Epigraphic, Historical and Art-Historical Analysis (Brill, 2000), and has written numerous articles on Egyptian kingship, monumental art and construction, history, popular religion, warfare, and diplomacy during the late Eighteenth Dynasty and Ramesside period. Ramesses II, Egypt’s Ultimate Pharaoh is his fourth book. Since 2001, Brand has served as director of the Karnak Hypostyle Hall Project, which is recording, conserving, and interpreting hundreds of scenes and hieroglyphic texts carved on the walls and columns of the Great Hypostyle Hall. The project uses cutting-edge technology to model and reveal the inscriptions on this forest of 134 giant columns. Brand has appeared in over twenty documentaries for the History Channel, Discovery, and National Geographic.https://www.lockwoodpress.com/product-page/ramesses-ii-egypt-s-ultimate-pharaoh-paperhttps://www.isdistribution.com/BookDetail.aspx?aId=143310Scholarly articles and bookshttps://memphis.academia.edu/PeterBrandProject recording inscriptions of Ramesses II and his time at Karnak Temple in Egypthttps://www.memphis.edu/hypostyle/ Twitterhttps://twitter.com/PeterBrandEgyptYoutube talks about Tutankhamun & Pharaoh's goldhttps://www.youtube.com/@arcetn9553This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryContact information: http://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.

It's a dream come true for Dan! He uses his great knowledge of ancient Rome to tell us more about the early, early days of the city and the legendary king Tarquin. You won't find a deeper dive than this... we have it all... Etruscans, the first Triumph, and War! But he doesn't stop there - oh no, not at all - we have a "disembodied phallus". Yep... that and the world's first tuba. Definitely check it out!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byDiILrNbM4This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryContact information: http://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.

In our latest episode of “What’s New In History”, Bernie tells of a recent discovery in Israel of a 3700 year old comb. But it’s more than meets the eye after a second look. The lead archeologist, Yosef Garfinkel, said “I really think this is the most important object ever found in my excavations.” That’s a pretty bold statement…is it the comb of King David or maybe Abraham?
