Egypt: Engineering an Empire

National Geographic Channel

April 9–10, 6 a.m. ET/PT.

Using computer graphics, this two-part presentation on Egypt focuses on the architectural achievements made more than two thousand years before the Romans. The temples and canals were made without much more than brain power and brawn—but the course of ancient history can be traced by looking at these fortresses and pyramids. This 21st century analysis will help students see antiquity with fresh eyes.
