  • Summary

  • Mummification! Pyramids! Book of the Dead! Ancient Egypt is such a fascinating period of history, and still so pervasive in our consciousness today. Fortunately for us, ancient Egyptians were also fascinated in the human heart!


    On this episode, we interview two brilliant academics: Dr Camillia Di Biase-Dyson and PhD Candidate Madeleine Jenkins from Maquarie University. We learn all about how ancient Egyptians perceived the heart in the context of the human body. Stay tuned to the end to hear when we delve into the accuracy of ancient Egyptian language in the Brendan Fraser Hollywood Blockbuster, "The Mummy"....
