Covering everything from new translations of prayers from Ancient Egypt to bone density surveys of thousand year-old mummies in the Peruvian Highlands, James Fleischmann has steadily built himself a large corpus of linked and annotated material and a growing community on substack. Each week he shares news from the world that was, curating selections from a steadily-increasing number of sources in ancient history, anthropology, archaeology, linguistics, and genetics. He also has a soft spot for ancient religious and mystical practices.
I've worked with him many times promoting various historical articles and stories and he is a real bright spot in this field. For anyone interested in ancient history, please subscribe to his newsletter.
