New CSP Hieroglyphics T: Ancient Swag, Everyday Style

Introducing the exclusive CSP Hieroglyphics T, honoring Nachliel Selavan, aka "The Museum Guy"! Nachliel is not just any museum guide; he's a Jewish education innovator, history and archaeology enthusiast, and an international superstar of museum tours. He’s navigated the hallowed halls of the Israel Museum, the Bible Lands Museum in Jerusalem, and even the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Whether it's in person or through the magic of virtual tours, Nachliel engages thousands with his dynamic storytelling and deep knowledge. Basically, if Indiana Jones had a cooler, Jewish cousin, it’d be Nachliel.

This one-of-a-kind shirt features the hieroglyphics for "Israel" from the famous Merneptah Stele—because nothing says "timeless style" quite like flaunting an ancient Pharaoh’s failed brag about wiping out our ancestors. Discovered by the renowned British archaeologist Flinders Petrie in 1896 at Thebes, this two-meter-tall granite monument contains the earliest known reference to Israel outside the Bible. With 25 lines of hieroglyphics, it recounts Pharaoh Merneptah’s conquests in Canaan, including his dubious claim:

“Canaan is captive with all woe.
Ashkelon is conquered, Gezer seized,
Yanoam made nonexistent;
Israel is laid waste, bare of seed.”

Well, Merneptah, we’ve got news for you—Israel is still here, thriving and rocking this amazing T-shirt! Turns out, reports of our demise were greatly exaggerated.

• Hieroglyphics for "Israel" from the Merneptah Stele

And come Passover, it becomes even more special, as it celebrates our survival and resilience with a dash of ancient swagger. Ideal for history buffs, museum enthusiasts, and anyone who loves a good underdog story.
