Egypt's Treasure Guardians

Egypt is home to many of the most famous archaeological treasures on Earth, but the country’s history does more than just inspire awe. It has also given rise to an entire industry. Thousands of international archaeologists descend on Egypt every year to search for new discoveries; tens of thousands of Egyptians are enlisted to uncover, preserve and protect the land’s ancient artifacts and monuments; and millions of visitors journey from all over the world to look in wonder at the country’s iconic pyramids, tombs and temples. But over the last five years, Egypt has suffered a tumultuous revolution and tourist numbers have plummeted. This show follows a select cast of individuals determined to bring Egypt back from the brink, to discover more of Egypt’s history, to keep its heritage safe and to get tourists to visit the country again.
