How Salt built the World's Greatest Civilizations - Part 2
Manage episode 373066189 series 2575536
In 1922, The tomb of Tutankhamun was discovered in the Valley of the Kings by excavators led by the Egyptologist Howard Carter. It was the first known largely intact royal burial from ancient Egypt and became one of the most significant archaeological finds of the 20th century. Inside the tomb, amongst thousands of objects, two vials stood out, for they were critical in the process of embalming and mummification. A close cousin of the contents of that vial was also found, and it brought to the fore the importance of this spice in Egyptian civilization. But what if I told you that this spice was so important, that it built not only the Egyptian civilization, but another important one? This week, in Party 2 of the series, we travel from Spain to Africa and understand the how Salt built these two great civilizations.
