Kyle Weyburne traded in his career as an economist to travel the globe and investigate the greatest mysteries of our ancient world.
Extensive travels through Egypt, Syria, India and across Asia have fuelled his lifelong fascination with overlooked and untold histories.
Kyle has produced two documentary series, alongside writing several acclaimed non-fiction and historical fiction books exploring the secrets of our past.
Architcture of Ra won numerous international awards and tells the tale of why the Egyptians built their pyramids–––and they weren’t simply tombs for great kings. That’s how a modern would think, but theirs was a very different world, one dominated by gods and goddesses, not ego. Pharaoh was the offspring of Horus and so he was their connection to the gods. He had to live on after death and so pyramids were designed to function.
The Forgotten Pharaoh is his latest work and it's a visually sumptuous immersion into the majesty of ancient Egypt, accompanied by glimpses of modern-day Egyptians, living out their vibrant lives. It reveals the lost history of a king who we have thought for centuries did very little, truth be told, he was one of their greatest pharaohs!
