Tut didn't build any pyramids. He's New Kingdom. The pyramids are Old
Kingdom. He was buried in the Valley of the Kings.

I was thinking of the experimental history and experimental
anthropology shows...but they also usually do focus on things that can
be blown up, shot at, or kill a lot of people.
So, such a show might have a chance if you show, for example, that
King Tut had a narcisistic personality disorder and that's why (beyond
any and all doubt that he had the pyramids built). Of course, 95% of
the show would be about the pyramids, the help received from aliens,
and the spin-off episodes of the family grief counselling (such as it
was in those days) for those unfortunates who were crushed by the
massive stones. Oh yes, the psych explanation of the narcissism would
be the last 2-5%.

Probably a better model than "Mythbusters" is "History Detectives."
Historians hate it (in the main) but, to my mind, it presents a better
representation of what historians actually do (search through archives) than
all of the high-concept "Ancient Weapons Systems" shows put together.

Sadly, mythbusters is "relegated" to one of those high numbered cable
channels; I'd like to see psych busters on network TV.

Scott,
I was thinking about you and your book during my long trip to Boston
yesterday (4 hours by car from my house). The podcast I was listening
to mentioned the show "Myth Busters" which I've seen a few times.
Made me think of your latest book. Have you ever thought of making
some kind of "show" out of the book?
Michael
