History is not just what happened — it’s what someone wanted us to remember. From erased pharaohs to vanished cities, from libraries that quietly disappeared to sacred scrolls hidden for centuries, the past is full of deliberate cover-ups. Entire civilizations, dangerous ideas, and inconvenient truths were scrubbed from the record… but traces still remain.

In this calm, sleep-ready history, we drift through:

  • The strange erasure of Pharaoh Hatshepsut and her hidden legacy

  • The mystery of the Library of Alexandria and its missing knowledge

  • The forgotten Egyptian capital of Tanis, abandoned and silenced

  • The Dead Sea Scrolls and the decades of secrecy around their release

Told slowly and softly, this story explores not the myths we were given, but the gaps — the silences — and what they reveal about power, memory, and control. Perfect for late-night listening, when you want to let history unfold quietly in the background.
