From the back of the video:
The Pharaonic couple Akhenaten and Nefertiti are among the most fascinating and infamous of all figures to come out of ancient Egypt. Together they committed the greatest outrage of their age, the destruction of the accepted, ancient Egyptian Gods. Their mummies, symbols of their immortality, have remained lost to this day despite intensive searches. Now, in Egypt's Vaaly of the Kings, a team of scientists is following up the latest clues. Were the mortal remains of this revolutionary Pharoah and his wife in fact found long ago? The trail leads us to the Mummy Laboratory at Cairo Museum, where experts are busy examining the dynasty of Akhenaten for signs of hereditary diseases. What will they find?
As a result of Archeaological discoveries it is now also possible to rebuild Akhenaten's long-lost capital city, Akhenaten (el-Amarna) and bring it back to life with the aid of 3D animation. At this and other historical locations, such as the temple sites and burial grounds of Luxor, the strange story of Akhenaten and Nefertiti can be further explored through elaborately detailed scenic reconstructions - and this ancient mystery unravelled.

Around 1995 Time Life's Lost Civilizations were released on video, there were intially 10 episodes which are listed on imdb here: www.imdb.com/title/tt0112054/...
These first 10 episodes are public domain and have been uploaded by Time Life here:

These are readily available on VHS, there are always tapes of them selling for a few quid. But while browsing for them I stumbled across 14 further episodes. Now it's taken nearly 10 years for me to get all of them. The episodes I have now transferred for this channel are The Huns (7940111), Hannibal (7940112), The Vikings (7940113), Crete (7940114), Alexander the Great (7940115), Cleopatra (7940116), Nero (7940117), Ramses (7940118), Charlemagne (7940119), Richard the Lionheart (7940120), The Phoenicians (7940121), China's First Emperor (7940122), Akhenaten and Nefertit (7940123) and Nebuchadnezzar (7940124). The numbers in brackets refer to the code on the spine. These tapes do not have barcodes / ISBN numbers. Episodes of Lost Voices will follow at a later date.
I've used a JVC D560 with nicam bass boost on a few tapes and a Toshiba DVD-R recorder to transfer them to DVD. A couple of them have audio dropouts near the start and the odd flicker. If better versions become available I will replace them.
