In 2022, world Egyptology is commemorating several important anniversaries. One hundred years ago, the tomb of the "Golden King" Tutankhamun was discovered in the Valley of the Kings. And most importantly - 200 years have passed since the Frenchman Champollion deciphered the hieroglyphs. A new field of science, Egyptology, was born. Without knowing the writing of the ancient Egyptians, it was possible to discover and admire monumental buildings, magnificent statues and temple walls described with hieroglyphs, but no one understood them, nor that ancient civilization. After Champollion's discovery, the first real archaeologists came to Egypt. The leading Czech Egyptologist Miroslav Verner returns to the beginning while narrating with journalist Ivana Faryová and brings readers closer to the main milestones and the most interesting moments of this two-hundred-year-old story.
