Speaking of ancient egyptians, everytime I see the famous "The Mummy" meme, I cannot help but imagine what the real Imhotep would say if he knew that, 5000 years after his death, people still remember him, but not exactly as an omnipotent God...

Fun fact: In ancient Egypt, the brain was removed from the skull through a large hook, and then thrown out because it was not believed to be important.

Fun fact about Egypt: the pyramids would be considered ancient even when Egypt was still a civilization. If you made a timeline and put the pyramids on 1 side and space flight on the other. Cleopatra was born closer to space flight than the pyramids

I don't know how you all put out such good quality, well researched, well animated content so often but I really admire this channel for that.

The Narrator has my hat down for helping me sleep every night with monotone and great info combined

Funny thing about the egyptian afterlife is that despite it being built on the concept of permanence and being remembered forever, a large degree of their monuments and burial grounds were destroyed and looted often by future pharoahs to build their own various contructs. I think thats pretty telling of human nature and history in general.

The royal couple siblings is still the craziest thing to me.

Interesting tidbit about the headpieces as side from the Nemes... The white crown symbolised (control over) the upper part of the Nile region while the red crown symbolised (control over) the lower part of the Nile region. Both together symbolised (control over) both regions. They also had a blue crown-like headgear (called the Khepresh) that was basically their military headgear and a white headdress with feathers called the Atef, used specifically for religious occasions.

This I reckon is enough for many of us, myself included to want to go and visit Egypt 🇪🇬 at least once in our lifetime!

I've been subscribed to this channel for years; I remember their very first narrator. I've noticed a weird trend lately in the comments section. It started out with one or two comments, but now I'm seeing them everywhere.... And it's the comments that indicate that they think this channel is run by one person, putting out multiple videos each week, and then the comment goes on to praise the "person" and how amazingly talented that "person" is, and how we need to stop and reach out and appreciate this "person". And yeah, this channel has some great content, they post often, and the narrator is excellent, but y'all know that this is not the work of one person, right? Please tell me you know that there is a team of people putting in hours and hours of work on these, and it's not one madman cranking out these videos from his basement every day. The weird, obsequious, incessant praise for the "person" that does the videos is a bit much. I do, however, very much appreciate the team associated with this content; they usually get the facts right a majority of the time, and generally stay away from complete sensationalism, and the content comes out pretty consistently as well. So thank you, Infographics Staff, for entertaining and educating me on the regular.

As a part Egyptian, I'm glad that there's lots of constant research on my ancestors, my half-Egyptian Dad doesn't know much about the Egyptian side of our family.

Still waiting for a mummy to rise out of the pyramids.

Ancient Egyptian culture was so creepy yet neatly royalist💯⭐
