Zahi Hawass Coming to A.R.E.
By John Van Auken
Except for the fictional Indiana Jones, Dr. Zahi Hawass is the best-known archaeologist in the world, and is certainly the most powerful. As Secretary General of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities he oversees perhaps the greatest archaeological lands and monuments on the planet, which includes the last of the Seven Wonders of the World: the Great Pyramid of Egypt. He is the spokesman for CNN on archaeological news in Egypt, and in 2006, he received an Emmy for a special on ancient Egypt. He will be one of the featured speakers at the A.R.E.’s annual Ancient Mysteries conference, October 8-10, 2010
In 1974, at 27 years of age, Zahi Hawass met Mark Lehner, and the two became life-long friends and colleagues. It was Lehner who introduced Hawass to the Edgar Cayce Egyptian information. Years later, both men went on to get their PhDs in archaeology, Lehner at Yale University and Hawass at the University of Pennsylvania as a Fulbright Fellow. Read the rest of the article.
