I would definitely love to try bread from a 4,500 year old yeast culture.

(Copied from a sibling comment of mine): look at this site:

Ed Wood did more or less the same thing in the 90s, it was covered in Nat Geo in Jan 1995. He sells the sourdough culture he got in Egypt.

If you make your own wild yeast culture you might have a much older one.
