On Ancient Office Hours podcast, Lexie Henning chats with thought leaders in academia and the entertainment industry about how they got into their field, their current research/projects, and how they connect with the past. Together they strive to connect modern societies to ancient worlds, increase access to information about the ancient world, and introduce a wider audience to people who are inspired by antiquity. The Ozymandias Project is a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to promoting ancient studies and the reception of them. Learn about some of the cool projects the organization is working on!

Ancient Office Hours
Dr. Perrine Poiron, an Egyptologist/historian and former historical consultant on Assassin’s Creed Origins, joins Lexie to discuss why she chose to focus on the cat goddess Bastet, why we should learn more modern languages when studying antiquity, tips & tricks for archaeogaming with younger kids, her experience consulting on Assassin’s Creed Origins. So tuck in your togas and hop aboard Trireme Transit for this week’s exciting odyssey!
Note: At the time of this recording, Perrine was in the final stages of completing her doctorate. She has since successfully defended her dissertation. Brava Dr. Poiron!
