Description
"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
In this video, we explore the Ramesseum, the "House of a Million Years," and how it served as the ultimate tool of Pharaoh’s propaganda. From the staggering 1,000-ton Colossus to the "great lie" of the Battle of Kadesh, we peel back the stone to find the man behind the myth.
