ANCIENT LIVES—Documentary; 60 min.
Debut: A four-part series exploring the history,
lore and mystique of ancient Egypt. In the
opener, Egyptologist John Romer observes
the royal tombs where rulers from as early as
1300 B.C. were laid to rest.
In Thebes, John Romer observes the Temples
of the Nile, majestic monuments that were
considered the "links between heaven and
earth," and discusses the works of Paneb,
whose career as a royal craftsman was cut
short by scandal.

3. Processional Way of the Gods.
In Thebes, John Romer studies hieratic writ-
ings to examine the role of women in ancient
Egypt. Some, he says, were highly regarded
mistresses who lived leisurely, but the majority
were common-law wives whose job was to
maintain the home. Romer also discusses the
period's beautiful romantic poetry.
