The Vintage Egyptologist

[scripsi]

I don't know a lot about ancient Egypt, but I've always thought I was going to learn more, eventually. While writing my current Mummy-fic I have had occasion to do some research, and now I'm determined I will read up. I also found the Vintage Egyptologist, and I can't recommend their Youtube channel more. The couple dress in vintage and truly looks the part. Super interesting too.

Also found this hilarious re-watch of The Mummy. In case you wonder what they did right in the movie, and what they did not.

They also run vintage style tours on the Nile, and I so want to do that whenever it's possible to travel again. And if you are on Instagram, don't miss their account there!

Ohh, this sounds like an excellent YouTube channel! I've also wanted to become more familiar with ancient Egypt; such an interesting place and era!

I've seen them on various archeology shows, most interesting pair. And I love their period clothing, etc.

Thanks for the fun vid's! :)

Oh man I haven't watched that Mummy video, but I have fallen down a deep hole of Rachel Maksy's whole vintage look and sewing content. I love her.

Oh that looks fun! I follow her on Instagram because wow, what style! Someone I know a little here in NY was booked to go on their last tour that got cancelled, and was talking about how much she's hoping it'll still happen; it would be fun if you ended up on the same one.

I think my evenings plans have just been replaced by that youtube channel - I'm already a little in love. Thank you for the rec!
