EpicLife Field Notes – "The Courtyard at Saqqara"

In the shadow of Egypt's oldest pyramid, during the turbulent days of the Arab Spring, Scotty Roberts found himself standing alone in the ancient Heb-Sed Court of Saqqara.

What happened next has stayed with him ever since.

Was it a vision? A waking dream? A moment of imagination brought on by heat, history, and solitude? Or was it something far stranger?

Part travel journal, part historical exploration, and part personal mystery, The Courtyard at Saqqara recounts an unforgettable experience at one of the world's most ancient sacred sites. Through vivid storytelling, historical context, photographs from the field, and thoughtful reflection, Scotty invites readers to walk beside him into a place where the boundary between past and present seems unexpectedly thin.

Some places preserve history.

Others seem to remember it.

Welcome to Saqqara.
