In this illustrated talk, Justin explores why Ancient Egypt is known as 'The Mother and Father of All Things.' The seminal impact of Ancient Egypt on all the history that followed can be seen as akin to a pebble dropped into a still pond, from which we still feel the impact of its ripples even today.
