Brothers of the SerpentSep 21, 2026
After a long wine harvest hiatus, the Allen brothers return to explore a mysterious ancient road in Egypt's Faiyum region, partly paved with petrified wood and running from the megalithic temple of Qasr el-Sagha toward a remote basalt quarry. They walk through a 2006 Science paper on how climate shifts in the Sahara drove human migration and the rise of Pharaonic civilization, and ask where a hypothetical lost civilization could fit in that timeline. They also question mainstream explanations for catastrophic fossil deposits and for the saw-cut basalt found at Giza and other sites.
