The Civil War and Reconstruction was a pivotal era in American history.

When a war was fought to save the Union and to free the slaves.

And when the work to rebuild the nation after that war was over,

turned into a struggle to guarantee liberty and justice for all Americans.

I'm Tracy and I'm Rich.

And we want to invite you to join us as we take an in-depth look at this pivotal era in American history.

Look for the Civil War and Reconstruction wherever you find your podcasts.

Hello, everyone.

As I mentioned in my small update, I need to pause the narrative for a few weeks

while I deal with some personal and family business.

In the meantime, I have a talk that I gave for the Egypt Study Society about cities in northern Egypt,

particularly avarice and p-remacies around the end of the 18th dynasty and the start of the 19th dynasty.

I hope you enjoy. It's also available on YouTube.

So if you want to watch it, just follow the links in the episode description.

Thank you.

Good evening, everyone, or good day wherever you are.

It's currently about 1 p.m. for me.

So hello to everyone in every relevant time zone.

Before I start, obviously let me extend my thanks to the ESS and to Laura

and David, particularly for organizing this whole presentation.

And thank you to Dennis for taking care of the details with the zoom talk and all of that jazz.

Now, the work that I'm going to present today is a small section of my overall PhD research.
