Deir el-Medina is an ancient Egyptian village which was home to the artisans who worked on the tombs in the Valley of the Kings during the 18th to 20th dynasties of the New Kingdom period (ca. 1550–1080 BC) The settlement’s ancient name was “Set Maat” (translated as “The Place of Truth”), and the workmen who lived there were called “Servants in the Place of Truth”.During the Christian era the temple of Hathor was converted into a Church from which the Arabic name Deir el-Medina (“the monastery of the town”) is derived.
The site is located on the west bank of the Nile, across the river from modern-day Luxor.The village is laid out in a small natural amphitheatre, within easy walking distance of the Valley of the Kings to the north, funerary temples to the east and south-east, with the Valley of the Queens to the west. The village may have been built apart from the wider population in order to preserve secrecy in view of sensitive nature of the work carried out in the tombs.

Just listened the podcast with Dr. Nevill Drury. It was an amazing show which really highlighted the best aspects of Occult of Personality. OoP always does a fantastic job of in depth interviews with the brightest current occult thinkers and letting them be human. If you are in any way interested in the Western esoteric tradition, you should be listening to this show.

The reading of this line in Liber AL vel Legis may be memorable to some as the point when he or she put the book down and took it to be nonsense.
But there are so many lines in the book that made me fling it against the wall.
