About the author
Ahmed Osman is an Egyptian-born writer, resident in London, known for a series of books that reinterpret biblical history through the lens of ancient Egyptian chronology, published mainly by Bear & Company. Across titles including Moses and Akhenaten, The Hebrew Pharaohs of Egypt, The Egyptian Origins of King David and the Temple of Solomon and The Lost City of the Exodus, he argues for direct identifications between biblical figures, such as Moses, David and Solomon, and specific Egyptian pharaohs and officials, and proposes Egyptian origins for early Christianity in Christianity: An Ancient Egyptian Religion. His work departs from mainstream Egyptological and biblical scholarship and is generally regarded as a revisionist reading of ancient history, built on his own comparative reading of Egyptian, biblical and Koranic sources across several decades of writing. His books are aimed at general readers drawn to alternative history rather than at academic specialists.
