*I have loved learning about Ancient Egypt starting in elementary school. It is such an amazing topic for me. I am so glad nobody managed to destroy it all.*

*If you are Egyptian, I think you should be proud of your ancient heritage, because it's beautiful.*

Fun fact: there are actually 8 faces of the pyramids, each side is slightly angled inward and is bisected down the middle. Like a paper fortune teller.

Here's the thing: we don't know that these mathematic principles didn't exist back then due to the dark ages and the Alexandria Library being burned down. The amount of knowledge we lost is staggering. Societies were very advanced back then. We're probably still relearning things that we once knew.

One thing about cat mummies. I studied archaeology much of my life and there were so many hundreds of thousands, then millions of cat mummies, that, in the 19th and 20th centuries, farmers would grind them up in mills and use the material as fertilizer.

I've always wondered how much money it would take and how much time that it would take to restore all 3 of the pyramids to their original glory. That would be amazing to see how the pyramids are supposed to look.

There needs to be a horror game made based solely on ancient Egypt and its mythology, beliefs, and practices

around 3::53 "average life expectancy 25 to 35 years of age" infant mortality pulled the average down drastically.

As to the last one, the ancient Egyptians believed that a properly mummified corpse was essential to the soul having an eternal life. So to deny mummification to someone was to prevent them from ever enjoying an eternal afterlife- the ultimate punishment. The "screaming" skull is just a common and natural result of rigor mortis because of the way the jaw is attached to the skull. The person may have died calmly or violently as that wouldn't affect the process that opens the mouth after death.

If aliens helped Egypt, that means ancient Egypt are so smart that they could communicate with aliens

This channel needs to talk about Egypt a lot more that stuff is a rabbit hole of fascination

Plot twist the animal mummies were just mummy students taking their finals before being allowed to mummify humans.

Clickbait title, at no point is fear expressed by the scientists ever mentioned.

Wouldn't be surprised if the 'no boiling heads' sign was to ban fish-head soup. Someone cooked that in the galley of a ship I worked on, and it stunk so horribly that the galley had to be fumigated, and the pot it was cooked in was thrown overboard by the chief cook, who also banned it from ever being made in his galley again. The stink was so bad that most of the crew couldn't go inside, and if they tried they'd end up vomiting. The people who cooked it, however, said it was delicious... so I guess it's something you have to grow up with.

What a cute explanation of how the stones were transported. Some of the chamber stones from quarries as far away as 500 miles way!
