Decode the secret secret of the Egyptian mummy
Over the centuries, many Egyptian mummies are quite intact with many unexpected secrets that have been decoded by experts.
The process of mummification of ancient Egypt is considered quite scary.Leaving the Egyptian mummies intact after many centuries, the ancients carried out a mummification in 70 days.One of the notable steps in the process of mummification was that the mummified men smashed a bridge of the nose, inserting a special hook into the nostrils to the skull to collect the brain.
Mummies have 2 types: intentional mummification and natural mummification .Accurate intentional is when people intervene, carry out harsh procedures to keep corpses dead over time (for example, Egyptian pharaoh's mummies or upper class people).
Natural mummification is when the deceased person's body is exposed to extreme cold or dry environmental conditions, leaving the body in place over time.Some of the world famous natural mummies are the Otzi gang.
Ancient Egyptians believed that, after death, the body was "home" for the souls when they went to the afterlife.If the body is decomposed, it means that the soul will be destroyed.Therefore, preserving the body is the same as when it was alive to ensure that the soul was kept.Since then, the ancient Egyptians embalmed the body of the deceased.
Many Egyptian mummies were unearthed by accident.Some are buried in shallow graves in deserts, so they are easily discovered.
Many of the pharaoh's mummies or wealthy people were buried with a number of servants to let them go to the afterlife to continue their work as servants.These servants are often buried alive or killed before being taken to burial with the deceased owner.
Egyptian mummies used a lot of linen to wrap mummies.It is estimated that the ancients could use a 1.6 km long linen cloth to wrap mummies.The old people conceived, the thicker the mummy, the better the better.Therefore, they used a large amount of cloth during mummification.
In addition to humans, the ancients also made mummified animal carcasses.In it, cats are animals that have been pretty much embalmed by the ancients.In ancient times, cats were considered sacred animals.After a cat died, family members shaved their eyebrows to express their grief over the departure of the sacred animals.In 1888, a tomb was discovered containing 80,000 mummies of cats.
Some of the pharaoh's mummies were placed in important positions such as the mummy Pharaoh Tutankhamun.Many scientists were surprised to find that his penis was fixed, erected vertically in an attempt to counter the religious revolution initiated by his father.
For decades, many believe that the ancient Egyptian mummy brought a deadly curse.Those who open ancient tombs, breaking the thousand-dollar sleep of pharaohs will suffer the curse and have the destiny of misfortune, even mysteriously, unexplained death.
