Découvrez le riche patrimoine de l'Afrique et du Moyen-Orient à travers les yeux de nos conteurs.
The Traveler of the World
Join me as I travel from my home in Morocco all the way to China! We will ride camels across deserts, sail on big ships, and meet people from many different cultures.
The Father of History
I have collected tales from Egypt, Persia, and Greece. Let me tell you about the great pyramids, the Persian kings, and the battles that shaped our world.
The Royal Scribe
Every day I go to the temple school to practice my writing. I draw pictures called hieroglyphs that tell stories of pharaohs, gods, and the mighty Nile River!
The Amazigh Merchant
The Sahara is not just sand - it is a highway of treasures! I trade salt from the north for gold from the south, and share stories under the starry desert sky.
The Nubian Farmer
The Nile gives us water to grow our food. I wake up early to tend our garden, play with my goat, and listen to grandmother tell stories about the old kings of Nubia.
The Roman Soldier
Every morning I put on my armor and stand watch. At noon I train with my sword. At night we eat bread and olives and tell tales of the emperor in faraway Rome.
The Queen of Sheba
My kingdom is filled with frankincense trees, golden treasures, and wise counselors. I journeyed with a grand caravan across deserts to learn from another great king.
The Scholar of Cordoba
In Cordoba, people of all faiths come together to learn. I spend my days reading ancient texts, solving math puzzles, and gazing at stars through our brass astrolabe.
