News from the Field 2025, Part 1. In February 2025, the breaking news was the discovery of a royal tomb. An archaeological mission working in Luxor are confident they have located the grave of King Thutmose II. The tomb itself was discovered in late 2022, and the team announced it publicly in 2023. I reported on that initial find in the news roundup for that year. Now, another season has passed, and the team’s work has come to fruition... I am also joined by Dr. Chris Naunton , former Director of the Egypt Exploration Society , who was discussed the new find on his blog , and joins us to share some wider context and speculation.

The Great Sphinx of Giza is the most recognisable statue in the world - and one of the most mysterious. Even its Western name is misleading, since the monument bears little resemblance to the sphinx of ancient Greek mythology.

These include tales of what lies inside… In this episode, Dr Chris Naunton joins Matt Lewis to explore how the Sphinx was likely made; the evidence for who made it; and the many myths that surround it to this day.
