Just curious, which one are the sources for those beautiful illustrations towards the end of this episode, when you were covering the Ozymandias competition between Shelley and Smith, and then soon after, the Harper’s song on the tomb of Pharaoh Intef?

Jordan Peterson see the following link, it is a discussion with academic's from various quarters and religion's without the usual bigotry and bias. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL22J3VaeABQAppIsV0MmKYhGeFGJsy-dS

Thanks Bart, I'll take a look at that!

Broken link: the link to the “The Texts of the Battle of Kadesh.” currently includes the dot '.' at the end of the sentence, which breaks the link. Kindly adjust the link. And thanks for the extensive source listing, very interesting.
