Tonight, our journey takes us across the shifting sands of time to stand beneath the eternal shadow of the great pyramids of egypt in this historical sleep story for grown ups. We will explore the mysteries of ancient egypt and the giza pyramid, allowing the echoes of ancient history and the quiet majesty of the great pyramid of giza to guide you into a restful night. This is history for sleep, designed to calm your mind with the rich tapestry of egypt history. To take you back to the Old Kingdom, this story blends the ancient accounts of Herodotus with modern science. The details about the transport of stones come directly from the Diary of Merer - the actual logbook of an Egyptian official found near the Red Sea. The glimpse into the workers' lives ("The City of Bread") is based on the groundbreaking excavations of the worker's village by archaeologist Mark Lehner, proving that these men were respected builders, not slaves. 00:00 Introduction 00:57 Chapter 1: The Present Silence of the Plateau 14:45 Chapter 2: Before the Stones Rose 26:47 Chapter 3: The Burden of Architect Hemiunu 39:03 Chapter 4: Awakening the Quarries 49:19 Chapter 5: River of Life, River of Stone 57:09 Chapter 6: City of Shadows and Bread 01:04:39 Chapter 7: Rising to the Sky 01:13:51 Chapter 8: Heart of Granite 01:23:26 Chapter 9: Light and Shadow 01:31:28 Chapter 10: The Pharaoh's Funeral 01:39:42 Chapter 11: Thousands of Years of Sleep 01:45:20 Chapter 12: Modern Echoes 01:55:17 Chapter 13: Return to the Here and Now ðïļ About the Channel: Sanctuary of Whispers is a sanctuary for those who love history but need to sleep.
