The mummy of Djehutymose, a priest in the Temple of Horus between 684 and 525 B.C., may be missing, but he cheerfully informs his Facebook followers that his spirit (or "Ba") still lingers around his coffin at the Kelsey Museum of Archeology in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Context, organizer of critically acclaimed walking tours, expands its program in London with a walking seminar on the slave trade.

Greece: the land of the Gods, so rich in history that you can scarcely turn around without bumping into something extraordinary.
