There's some "mind-blowing" news in archaeology this week! We start with early hominids in Ethiopia using tools 500,000 years earlier than anything thought. Then we move to a possible 20,000 year old writing system in rock art. Finally, the oldest mummy ever found in Egypt was covered in gold! What else will they find there?

2022 marks the 100 year anniversary of the discovery of Tutankamun's tomb, and in celebration Dr Daniela Rosenow and Oxford Professor Richard Parkinson have helped create a museum exhibit that tells the story of its discovery and excavation. This unique approach highlights the people that did the excavation rather than the artifacts themselves for a unique approach to one of the most famous Egyptian archaeological discoveries. Join us for a conversation with Dr Rosenow and Professor Parkinson about the people responsible for excavating Tutankamun's tomb.
