Learn how to read Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs with Ilona Regulski | Curator's Corner S7 E11

You asked for more Ilona. You asked for more ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. And you technically asked for as many tangents relating to ancient Egyptian life as possible (see our community post if you don't believe us). So here it is: curator of ancient writing Ilona Regulski is going to teach you how to read your first sentence in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Definitely not hieroglyphics! CONTENT WARNING: There is a deeply palpable love of verbs throughout. Also, Nick is there.
