Archaeologist Nate Ramsayer will be back at the Stoneham Historical Society and Museum on Thursday, October 8, 2026. We have all heard the story of how in 1922, Egyptologist Howard Carter made one of the most memorable discoveries of all time—the tomb of King Tutankhamun. Nate will explain what made this such a noteworthy find? Why is King Tut the most well-known pharaoh from ancient Egypt? Where are the thousands of objects he was buried with found today? Come follow the footsteps of Howard Carter from just over 100 years ago, as we delve into the Valley of the Kings in search of this ancient legacy! Nate Ramsayer is a freelance biblical studies instructor, giving guest lectures at churches, synagogues, senior communities, schools, and universities around the country. He holds an M.A. degree in Hebrew Bible and the ancient Near East from Brandeis University. He is also an active archaeologist who has excavated at seven sites around the world, focusing mainly on Israel during the Bronze and Iron Ages. Nate’s scholarly research interests include biblical composition and manuscript history, ancient Near Eastern myths, and exploring points at which the archaeological record confirms or is at tension with the narrative found in the Bible. He has also worked extensively in the field of the Dead Sea Scrolls, presenting papers, giving lectures, working with museum exhibits, and even researching at the Qumran caves where the scrolls were found. Recently, Nate has delved into the fascinating world of Egyptology, offering many lectures on various aspects of ancient Egypt.
Doors open at 6:45 PM. A brief business meeting will commence at 7:15 PM followed by our evening's program. As always, admission is free. We hope to see you there and bring a friend.
