Finally – the Archeologist

Finally – the Archeologist

by marlies|dekkers

“Finally,” the Archaeologist whispered as the most magnificent face she had ever seen emerged from the dust and the darkness, transcending centuries with its golden radiation. Could this really be it? The final resting place of Cleopatra, Goddess Queen of ancient Egypt? All of a sudden, a rustling sound. She didn’t believe in curses, but she knew that this gilded shrine could easily become her own tomb. Without turning around, she placed her hand on her gun.

“I married an archaeologist because the older I grow, the more he appreciates me,” Agatha Christie once jokingly said about her marriage to eminent archaeologist Max Mallowan (he was 13 years her junior). After a devastating divorce, Agatha took a trip to Baghdad – on the Orient Express! – in 1928 and lost her heart to archaeology, the ancient sites of Iraq and to Max, who would become the love of her life. Agatha spent the following two decades living on excavation sites in the Middle East, helping out with Max’s work (she famously used her Innoxa moisturizing face cream to clean and preserve the finds) and writing novels inspired by her adventures, including ‘Death on the Nile’ and ‘Murder on the Orient Express’. It turned out that crime writers and archaeologists are surprisingly alike: combining curiosity with critical thinking skills and wanderlust, they both dig patiently to reveal the shining truth.

“The lure of the past came up to grab me. To see a dagger slowly appearing, with its gold glint, through the sand was romantic.”– Agatha Christie in her memoir ‘Come, Tell Me How You Live’

In January, I presented my newest FW20 collection during a show full of dance and entertainment in Rotterdam. All my work as a feminist designer is inspired by muses, powerful female icons from past and present. And for FW20, my muse will be crime writer Agatha Christie. A few months from now, you will get to discover the collections, and see how they tell stories like Agatha’s thrilling books do..

Running for your life

Dr. Bram Bakker is a psychiatrist, a writer, a runner and a provocateur. With his many bestselling books and columns – and yes, even his own theatre show – he urges us to think outside the box when it comes to our mental health. Not crazy about popping pills? Bram shared some interesting alternatives with me, from throwing out our phones to running ‘till we puke’.
