About Gabriel Vandervort
and Ancient Resource

For three years before entering into this wild and fascinating world of ancient artifacts, exploration and travel, I was a producer and writer for History Channel documentaries. I soon became the "go-to guy" for ancient history documentaries, including The Apostle Paul, Saint Peter: the Rock, The Twelve Apostles, and the series The Most. After leaving the production world in 2002 I began developing my own business before launching it in 2004.

I began Ancient Resource as an outlet for my love of antiquities and ancient history. I feel honored to be able to expose people to authentic artifacts of the ancient world, teach them about the history of the world at the time, and help them connect, through physical artifacts and coin portraits, with the heroes and villains of ancient history. I enjoy speaking at schools, bringing coins and artifacts for the children to touch and hold. I see this as a rare and beautiful way to bring the often-intangible subject of history into their very hands.

In October of 2005 I married my beautiful, long-time girlfriend Gwynne, and the following year we had our first son, Nicholas.

In late 2004, I set off on a month-long expedition through Egypt and Jordan with my two good friends Kelly and Michelle Ramage. Every day was an adventure-- we avoided the "beaten path" and overly-touristed locations and instead stuck to ancient maps and writings to find our destinations. We roamed the vast Sahara Desert where ancient cities and temples once stood, discovered tombs where the mummies still lay upon their burial slabs, lived in tents with Bedouins who guided us through their discoveries, and rode by horse and donkey through the cliffs of Petra, Jordan-- in my opinion the most beautiful place on earth.

Please enjoy the site! Stay a while and come back soon!
