Show Notes
Akhenaten, oh Muses, is who we discuss in today's episode. We'll talk through his religious beliefs and how it made sense to build a new city in the middle of the desert. We encounter anthropomorphic stars, megalomania, re-writing religion, the pain of moving, artsy fartsy stuff, and the Pharaoh Tutankhamun.
