Saturday 3 October 2026: 

Hilary Wilson: 'Bread, Beer and Economics: Egypt's Moneyless Society'. This meeting is not on Zoom. Face-to-Face Meeting at Itchen College, 1400 UK time: 

Synopsis:
Before the introduction of coinage in Graeco-Roman times, the Egyptians lived with a thriving barter economy, based on the perceived value of agricultural produce, in particular grain. Barley, wheat and their products, notably bread and beer, were treated in all respects as money. State employees were rewarded for their service according to detailed pay-scales depending on rank. Accountants kept careful records of deliveries to and extractions from temple and royal granaries, and the outputs of kitchens, bakeries and breweries. Hilary investigates the practicalities of an economy based on food, and shows how the Egyptian moneyless society worked.

Saturday 17 October 2026: 

Silvia Zago: ‘The Tomb of Amenemipet (TT 265) at Deir el-Medina’ .

Description: This talk will focus on thepresentation of the project to investigate Theban Tomb (TT) 265, locatedin the western necropolis of Deir el-Medina and belonging to Amenemipet, aroyal scribe and superintendent of works during the early reign of Ramesses II.This rock-cut, polychrome tomb was painted with a selection of texts andillustrations drawn from the corpus of the Book of the Dead, which played aprominent role in the decorative programme of Ramesside royal and non-royaltombs of the Theban necropolis. Moreover, not only does TT 265’s iconographicrepertoire have many traits in common with burial monuments of othercontemporary Deir el-Medina workmen, but the style with which the paintingswere executed is very similar to that of certain sepulchres of royal wives anddaughters buried in the Valley of the Queens, foremost of which Nefertari’s(QV 66). The talk will therefore present for the first time the decorativeprogramme of TT 265 and discuss the set of questions that have emergedanalysing the tomb’s decoration over the first two seasons of fieldwork.

Biography: Silvia Zago is a Lecturer inEgyptology in the Department of Archaeology, Classics and Egyptology of theUniversity of Liverpool. She was appointed Member of the Royal HistoricalSociety in 2021, and in 2022-2024 she was Visiting Professor of Egyptology inthe Department of Civilisation and Knowledge of the University of Pisa (Italy).Her research focuses on ancient Egyptian religion and afterlife texts, and inparticular the evolution of notions of the otherworld over time, on which shehas published extensively, including the recent monograph 'A Journey throughthe Beyond: The Development of the Concept of Duat and Related CosmologicalNotions in Egyptian Funerary Literature' (Lockwood Press, 2022). Her workencompasses magic and ritual practices and the conceptualisation and use ofsacred landscapes in ancient Egypt.

She took part in severalarchaeological excavations in Italy as well as in Egypt and Oman and she iscurrently a member of the mission of the Institut Français d'ArchéologieOrientale (IFAO) to Deir el-Medina (Luxor, Egypt), where she is Co-Director ofthe project aimed at the documentation of TT (Theban Tomb) 265 ofAmenemipet, which will be published as an IFAO monograph. 

 

Thursday 12 November 2026 (evening meeting 18.30 for 19.00 start): 

This meeting is in the evening, but is still a Zoom meeting. 

Paul Bouchard: ‘From Digital Scans to Wooden Stools – Handcrafting Functional Reproductions of Egyptian Furniture’.

Outline: This presentation will walk through the digital-to-wood reconstruction of several ancient Egyptian stools and chairs. It hopes to present design insights that might not be readily gleaned from a purely visual examination and in some sense, bring these ancient objects into our world so that we might experience their functional properties.

Biography: After decades in the digital workspace of the animation industry,the presenter felt a compulsion to create tangible objects. Scans made in the British Museum, Museo Egizio, Brooklyn Museum and Ägyptisches Museum have produced 3D reference models that guide his wooden recreations of Egyptian furniture. 

 

Saturday 21 November 2026: 

Ken Griffin: ‘Breathing Life into Death: The Redevelopment of the Egypt Centre’. 

Outline: The talk explores the six-month, intensive refurbishment of the Egypt Centre’s House of Death gallery. Now reopened, the gallery has been transformed into an immersive environment through the use of vibrant tomb scenes and modernised display technology. With state-of-the-art lighting and the addition of “discovery drawers,” the museum now exhibits approximately 650 objects, offering a tactile learning experience that allows visitors to uncover “hidden” artefacts. A central theme of the presentation is the gallery’s unique architectural centrepiece: a vaulted ceiling featuring a celestial field of yellow stars and names inscribed in hieroglyphs. This design serves as a permanent public tribute, immortalising 40 staff and volunteers, 60 financial supporters, and even several local pets within the gallery’s “heavens”. By literally weaving the local community into the physical fabric of the ancient Egyptian display, the redevelopment celebrates a deep, lasting connection between the museum’s history and its modern-day supporters. 
 
Biography:  Dr Ken Griffin currently serves as the Curator of the Egypt Centre at Swansea University. Prior to this role, he held the position of Collections Access Manager at the same museum. His connection to the Egypt Centre began in2000 when he signed up as a volunteer. Over the past two decades, he has dedicated himself to researching and promoting the collection, resulting in the publication of several artefacts. Before joining the Egypt Centre, Ken taught Egyptology at Swansea University and also served as the coordinating tutor for the Egyptology programme within the Department of Adult Continuing Education (DACE). His passion for the subject has led him to visit Egypt over 60 times, and since 2010, he has actively participated in archaeological fieldwork in both Egypt and Sudan. 

 

Saturday 12 December 2026: 

Martin Odler: ‘Copper Working in Ancient Egypt: New Insights into Copper of Ancient Egypt and Nubia’. 

Outline: In the lecture, I am providing an overview of the fresh results of the recent research into the ancient Egyptian and Nubian copper metallurgy, focusing on the Bronze Age and Chalcolithic. We understand many aspects much better and newly published datasets enriched our understanding of particular periods and metal alloys used in them, as well as improving overall understanding of the ancient technology.
 
Biography: Martin Odler is currently a visiting fellow at the School of History, Classics and Archaeology of Newcastle University. He published widely on ancient Egyptian copper, three academic books on the Old Kingdom tools, on the Leipzig collection of Egyptian metalwork, and on the early Egyptian copper in general, down to the beginning of New Kingdom. He is also an author and co-author of a number of academic and popularizing articles on copper and ancient Egyptian archaeology. 

 

Saturday 16 January 2027: 

Vanessa Foott: ‘Bes’. (Title to be confirmed). 

Outline: Bes was popular in Egypt but where did he come from and how far travelled was he? This talk will examine some aspects of Bes that appear to have spread beyond Egypt into the Middle East, Turkey, and the Mediterranean.
 
Biography: Vanessa completed aMasters in Egyptology at the University of Manchester in 2022 and then went onto study Biomedical Egyptology also at Manchester. She has worked on excavationat the South Asasif in Luxor for the last six years. She has written articlesfor Nile Magazine and is a Local Ambassador for the Egyptian ExplorationSociety. 

 

Saturday 20 February 2027: 

Joyce Tyldesley: 'Wise Women: Female Power in Ancient Egypt'. 

Outline: With a few notable exceptions, official art and literature depict elite Egyptian women providing passive support to their active male relations. A closer look at the archaeological record shows that women of all classes were far from passive. Taking evidence from the Predynastic and Dynastic Ages, this talk will consider some of the powerful roles allocated to women. These will include female priests, midwives and “wise women”.

Biography: Joyce is professor of Egyptology at the University of Manchester and a Research Associate of the Manchester Museum. She has published a series of books and articles on Ancient Egypt for adults and children. Cleopatra, Last Queen of Egypt was a Radio 4 "Book of the Week" and Tutankhamen's Curse: The Developing History of an Egyptian King won the Felicia A Holton Book Award from the Archaeological Institute of America. In 2024 she was awarded the OBE for services to Egyptology and heritage; in 2025 she was voted Archaeologist of the Year by the readers of Current Archaeology. 

 

Saturday 20 March 2027: 

Anke Weber: ‘News from the Valley of the Kings. Ongoing work in the tomb of Ramesses III (KV 11)’. 

Outline: The tomb of Pharaoh Ramesses III was flooded several times in the late 19th and early 20thcenturies. These events caused significant damage to the rear chambers, which have been inaccessible ever since. An international and interdisciplinary team from Humboldt University of Berlin is now excavating and conserving this important cultural heritage site in preparation for a final publication. Although the tomb has been accessible since antiquity, the archaeologists have recovered several objects that were part of the king's original burial equipment. These important discoveries will provide new insights into the royal burial customs of the New Kingdom and contribute to a better understanding of the Egyptian state at the end of the Bronze Age.

Biography: Dr Anke Weber is an Egyptologist and curator based in Berlin and Luxor. She studied Egyptology, Classical Archaeology and Ancient History at Free University Berlin before beginning her work as a museum curator at the Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection Berlin. She worked as a curatorial assistant supporting the exhibition “In the Light of Amarna” and later co-curated exhibitions about Ancient Egyptian Storytelling Traditions and Elephantine. Her PhD dealt with the daily offering table scene in New Kingdom tombs of Thebes-West with special focus on the depiction of foodstuffs. Anke is the mission director of The Ramesses III (KV 11) Publication and Conservation Project and currently works on the reuse of the pharaoh’s tomb in modern times as well as the multimodal communication of KV 11.

Synopsis: TBC
 
 
Biography:
 
  

 

Saturday 15 May 2027: 

Lidija McKnight: ‘Raptors Unwrapped: the exploitation of birds of prey in Late and Ptolemaic Egypt’ (title to be confirmed). 

Outline: Birds of prey (raptors), depicted in the form of hieroglyphs, artistic representations and as mummies, are frequent symbols throughout Egyptian history. Despite this frequency, scholarly investigation has concentrated on their divine associations. Combining cutting-edge, non- and minimally-destructive scientific analyses of mummies, with ornithologically informed evaluation of art historical and textual evidence, a new project will transform understanding of the exploitation of raptors in Late and Ptolemaic Egypt (712–30 BC), when vast numbers were mummified on an industrial scale and interred in subterranean catacombs. In her presentation, Lidija will discuss how animal palaeopathological data of modern raptors, with known histories, will inform the analysis of computed-tomographic images of small raptor mummies, to establish how these birds were captured and managed. She will outline the analytical methods that will be applied to the study specimens —including mobility (H:D) and dietary (C:N) isotopes, physical reproduction of key identifying bones, and re-analysis of textual and art-historical evidence —to show how an interdisciplinary investigation of animal mummies can tell us about human-raptor relationships and the long-term change in wild bird population dynamics.
 
Biography: An archaeology graduate of the University of York (BSc 2000) and the University of Manchester (MSc 2001, PhD 2008), Lidija worked on a series of research contracts between 2010 and 2021 before taking up a lectureship in Biomedical Egyptology. In February 2025, she moved to the University of Leicester to take up the role of Senior Research Associate on the Leverhulme Trust-funded project, Raptors Unwrapped. With over 25 years’ experience researching animals mummified as votive offerings, Lidija is passionate about showcasing the importance of these artefacts through public engagement and the media. 

 

Saturday 19 June 2027: 

Beth Asbury: 'Ancient Egyptian Religion: The Cult of Osiris in Theory and Practice'.
