Stephen S. Mehler, MA, is an author and Egyptologist. In 1992, Stephen Mehler met Egyptologist and indigenous wisdom keeper Abd’El Hakim Awyan in Egypt. After further trips to Egypt to work in the field with Hakim in 1997, 1998 and twice in 1999, Stephen wrote his first book, The Land Of Osiris, published in 2001. Stephen and Hakim have redefined the field as Khemitology, not Egyptology. Further work with Hakim in Egypt in 2003 and 2004 have resulted in Stephen’s latest book, From Light Into Darkness: The Evolution Of Religion In Ancient Egypt, published by Adventures Unlimited Press. Stephen is currently Director of Research for the Great Pyramid of Giza Research Association.

Egyptologist/Tour Guide

Ms. Soha Mahmoud has worked with us for several years. Our groups have found her to be extremely knowledgeable, very professional, and also very warm and friendly. Soha has a degree in Tourism, with 18 years experience guiding groups in Egypt.  She has traveled to Europe and the U.S.A. to learn about other cultures, and is the single mother of 9 year-old twin girls.

Abd'El Hakim Awyan, or Hakim, as he is generally known, is an Egyptian born and trained Egyptologist/archaeologist who has been an active tour guide and authority on ancient Egypt for over 55 years.  He has also spent the majority of his life gathering and synthesizing the oral traditions of his native country for over 70 years. He is internationally known as an Indigenous wisdom keeper and recognized Elder of the village of Nazlet el-Samman, located near the Giza Plateau.  Hakim, along with Stephen S. Mehler, has founded the discipline of Khemitology, which coalesces the indigenous oral traditions with his own personal observations, experiences and conclusions about the ancient civilization of Egypt known as Khemit.  These conclusions differ greatly from the academic and Western traditions of Egyptology.
