Ramses the Great's Zoo
Step into the menagerie of Pharaoh Ramses II. From lions pacing the palace precincts to giraffes imported from Punt, exotic animals were status symbols, diplomatic gifts, and living propaganda. Lucas and Luna explore the evidence—reliefs at Abu Simbel, the tomb of a royal pet, the logistics of capturing a cheetah in Kush and shipping it down the Nile. It's a glimpse into how Ramses displayed his dominion over both people and nature.
