Deir el-Bahari - The mortuary temple of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut. Besides being one of the most breathtaking locations in Egypt, it is also the site where a cache was discovered in the 1800s. This cache contained the remains of most kings of the New Kingdom, including notable figures such as Thutmose I, II, and III, Seti I, Ahmose I, and Ramesses I, II, III, and IX.
Third Intermediate Period - This time period spanned approximately from 1077 BC to 656 BC, covering the 21st to 25th Dynasties. During this era, Egypt was not unified, and multiple dynasties ruled simultaneously. Interestingly, none of these dynasties were native to Egypt. The 21st to 24th Dynasties had Libyan origins, while the 25th Dynasty originated from Nubia (modern-day Sudan).

Codex Telleriano-Remensis: This is a pictorial manuscript that provides valuable insight into the pre-Columbian Aztec civilization of Mexico. This codex largely consists of two parts. The Telleriano section is primarily concerned with the ritual calendar and the agricultural year of the Aztecs. The Remensis section focuses more on genealogy, history, and cosmology, with illustrations of deities, rulers, and mythical narratives.
Tenochtitlan: The capital city of the Aztec Empire, located on an island in Lake Texcoco in the Valley of Mexico. The city was founded in 1325 AD, and by the time the Spanish Conquistadors arrived there in the 16th century, it was inhabited by 200,000 people, several times bigger than any city in Europe.
Quetzalcoatl: One of the most important and revered deities in ancient Mesoamerican religion, particularly among the Aztecs and other Nahua peoples. The name Quetzalcoatl is derived from the Nahuatl language and is often translated as "feathered serpent." This deity held significant importance in various aspects of Mesoamerican cosmology, including creation myths, religious rituals, and social organization.
