In my mailbox: Conjuring Harriet “Mama Moses” Tubman
I want to thank Weiser Books for the free review copy of Conjuring Harriet “Mama Moses” Tubman and the Spirits of the Underground Railroad by Witchdoctor Utu.

Very few of us in this … Continue reading Besom, Stang & Sword
Surprise Discovery of 4,000-Year-Old Egyptian Sphinx with Human Head and Lion Body
Local authorities in Egypt have announced the discovery of an ancient sphinx statue between two of the best known ancient temples in the country – Karnak and Luxor. The discovery was made by chance, during a restoration project, and stunned the construction workers who found it. There have been very few sphinxes discovered in modern times and the find will add to our knowledge of Egyptian sculpture and art. The sphinx will also raise questions as to what else may be found in the area and which Pharaoh the statue represents. source: https://www.ancient-origins.net/news-history-archaeology/sphinx-0010530 Continue reading Surprise Discovery of 4,000-Year-Old Egyptian Sphinx with Human Head and Lion Body
