Excellent presentation by people who open a new universe in reading of the only available papyri collection with literature texts. The significance and methods for unwrapping and reading the texts are beyond imagination. Thank you.

Felicitations to the team led by Youssef. But it's a shame that the US State Department did not allow him to participate physically at this event.

Listening to this is about as close to being a time traveler as I am likely to get! So stimulating! So exciting!
