SEARCHING FOR THE LOST CITIES OF EGYPT (2-PART LECTURE)
Forget about Egypt’s monumental temples and tombs, and instead join Carl Graves as we immerse ourselves in the daily life of ancient and Medieval Egypt. Together we will (virtually by PowerPoint) walk the streets of Amenemhat’s palatial city nestled beneath his pyramid at el-Lisht, mount the ramparts at the Nubian fortress of Buhen, take in the sea breeze at Alexander’s lost Mediterranean capital, and listen for the sounds of a now vanished Cairo. On this whirlwind tour of Egypt’s lost cities, Carl will guide us through what ‘lost’ really means and what might be left to discover beneath the sands (and waters!) of north-eastern Africa.

Dr Carl Graves is Director of the Egypt Exploration Society and completed his PhD on the subject of cultural landscapes in ancient Egypt at the University of Birmingham in 2017. He has led several tours in Egypt, co-authored a new introduction to the 2022 reprint of A Thousand Miles Up the Nile by Amelia Edwards, and author of Howard Carter: From Tracer to Tutankhamun (2024) and Amelia B Edwards: The ‘Queen of Egyptology’ (2025).
