Skype a Scientist (VIRTUAL)

Tonight we're Skyping a Scientist about Ancient Egypt! We'll get a look at some objects from the Harvard Art Museums, and learn some of the "hidden meanings" of hieroglyphs and other ancient symbolism. 

Our host is Jen Thum, an Egyptologist and museum educator currently serving as a curatorial fellow at the Harvard Art Museums. Thum completed her PhD dissertation, “Words in the Landscape: The Mechanics of Egyptian Royal Living-Rock Stelae” at Brown University in 2019. She started participating in the Skype a Scientist program in 2017 and has been matched with a dozen different classrooms to date.
