Maarten will coming from Baltimore, USA, to talk to us about his research findings on the Pharaoh, Mentuhotep II.

After completing 3 Masters degrees in Belgium, Maarten decided to study for his PhD at the John Hopkins University, Baltimore. He is studying the reign of Mentuhotep II, and specifically, the fragments of his funerary temple at Deir-El-Bahari, (near modern-day Luxor), which have ended up being scattered in museums around the world.

Maarten's talk will cover both information about Mentuhotep II's lengthy reign, as well as telling us about the excavation of his temple, over 100 years ago.
