Expedition to Abydos | Egypt’s Past and Present

Abydos may be the most mysterious ancient place in Egypt, if not the world. As old as the Nile civilization itself, it is the supposed burial place of Osiris, the god who was Egypt’s mythic first king. Its ruins, though filled with clues, never quite give up their secrets. Exploring it requires a journey by road, first across desert, then through towns and villages overflowing with the activity of everyday Egyptian life. The ancient ruins of Abydos are serene and secretive, but the way there and back is filled with the action and excitement always present on the thoroughfares and byways of Egypt. Shot in full-frame 4K, this is a distortion-free view of the scenic and eventful roads, towns, and villages between Luxor and Abydos, and the most intact monuments at the site of the ancient city and its necropolis. Beyond two brief instances amounting to a few seconds, none of the footage has appeared in previous videos. The informative titles can also be viewed as closed captions, allowing for control over text sizing, color, and background.
