New Discovery in Egypt Scared Scientists

a gruesome Discovery took place in Egypt

some years ago you want to hear about it

16 human hands carefully buried in four

Eerie pits they didn't look too much

like human hands at first since they

were abnormally large but they were

weirdly there were only right hands no

left hands were in sight it turned out

that it points to the practice of an

ancient Dark Ritual old Egyptian art and

tales talked of a ceremony where

Warriors would present the right hand of

their adversaries as proof of Victory

and ask for gold in return Egyptians

believed in the afterlife so cutting off

someone's hand meant you cut off their

power eternally guaranteeing this type

of defeat was interesting to the winning

party here the fight was between

Egyptians versus hixus who lived in what

was once known as

Canaan Egypt has always been the center

of some history changing findings and

some time ago this Papyrus was found if

we stretched it open it would be just a

tad bigger than the height of a

skyscraper the world's tiniest

skyscraper I mean which is located in

witcha Falls

Texas when humans didn't write on their

Notes app they wrote on this thing made

from the medulla of a Papyrus plant

around 2,000 years ago ancient Egyptians

wrote something reminiscent of a book

where they describe most of their ferary

traditions and their visions of the

afterlife it's considered one of the the

most important texts from ancient Egypt

and is still sold in bookstores to this

day this ancient manuscript was

Unearthed from a chamber located just

south of the Pyramid of doer located in

Sakara oh yes doer is the oldest Pyramid

in Egypt and not the Giza Pyramids like

most people think so recently the site

of Sakara buzzed with excited

archaeologists who probably found one of

Egypt's oldest complete mummies they

believe that this beautiful and well

preserved mummy was that of a wealthy

man he was discovered in a deep shaft

covered in layers of gold

leaves there are many symbols that show

he was an important and wealthy man like

the band he wore on his head the

bracelet on his chest and the fact that

he was embalmed with a tunic which was

reserved for Egypt's finest the most

exciting part of the entire Discovery

was finding the resting place sealed

with mortar just as the ancient

Egyptians had left it 4,300 years ago

now this may sound weird but back in

2008 archaeologists discovered a missing

pyramid now it went missing because it

deteriorated over the span of 4,000

years today you can only see its base it

was a pretty important site back in

ancient times it is said that around the

area of the pyramid the Ancients hosted

a special type of ceremony where High

priests would carry mummified remains of

sacred Bulls now here's a fun fact

ancient Egyptians believe that that AIS

Bulls were Earthly incarnations of the

city deity of Memphis and was connected

to rights of fertility it wasn't just

any AIS bull though they needed to be

all black with a single white Mark

between its horns and a bunch of very

specific characteristics they were

selected by the local priests and

honored until they passed away after

that they were mummified and buried in

underground

galleries meanwhile this missing pyramid

sort of disappeared around the 1800s it

was a German archaeologist who first

found it in the village of Sakura he

called it the Headless pyramid when he

first found it but then years after the

official Discovery the desert sand came

along and covered the whole thing there

were some excavations between the 19th

and 20th centuries but they weren't too

systematic that's why scientists were so

thrilled when they dug an entire

pyramid's base after removing the 25- Ft

mound of sand that was covering it oh

and it turns out American archaeologists

are Excavating a cemetery in Egypt that

could contain over a million mummified

bodies so far archaeologists have dug

around

1,700 mummies one of the main

differences from other classic Egyptian

mummies is that these people weren't

Kings and Pharaohs they were commoners

that most likely lived about 1,500 years

ago when Egypt was controlled by the

Roman and Byzantine Empires the name of

the cemetery is cool though the way of

the water buffalo just in case you want

to check it out on your next

trip other than bulls and Buffalos

ancient Egyptians also like baboons are

you seeing a pattern here in the

beginning of the 20th century

archaeologists discovered a site filled

with mummified baboons in a place called

guess what the valley of monkeys an

animal wouldn't have been mummified if

it wasn't considered important certain

animals were more important than others

since they were linked to specific

deities jackals were connected to a new

the ancient god of the afterlife and

cats were likened to the female deity

basted baboons were a pretty big deal

since they were believed to be connected

to th the deity of wisdom and adviser to

raah one of Egypt's Supreme

deities the archaeologists who studied

these animals weren't too happy they

think these baboons were kept inside and

were deprived of sunlight for most of

their lives they had extreme vitamin D

deficiencies and they were poorly fed

maybe Thoth got angry with these baboon

Keepers just a

guess since there's never a boring day

for archaeologists in Egypt they also

found human mummies with golden tongues

since Egyptians were all about the

afterlife they believe that golden

tongues might help a person speak once

they pass to the other side I mean it's

a long shot but hey why not some of

these mummies were placed in wooden

coffins with Goods such as necklaces

Pottery golden artifacts in the shape of

lotus flowers and scary beetles and

iPhones yeah just kidding a new Temple

was also Unearthed recently in Egypt

scientists believe it was dedicated to

honor Zeus casos that deity would be a

cross between Zeus the almighty Greek

deity of the sky and mount kasos while

digging around the Sinai Peninsula in

Egypt archaeologists spotted two pink

Granite columns poking out of the ground

and bingo they believe these columns

represented the Temple's front gate and

collapsed during an earth Quake many

years

ago and speaking of deities there

weren't only super serious deities

recently scientists unearth a golden

ring in a city south of Cairo no froto

it's not magical it was a normal gold

ring but it had the depiction of the

deity of fun officially named best this

deity is often described in sacred texts

as a happy chubby dwarf today many

tattoos we get are sort of deprived of

any sense and are made of aesthetic

pures only in ancient Egypt though women

would get tattoos as a token of

protection for child birth that's what

scientists think at

least around the Nile region scientists

found some mummies that had well

preserved tattoos which is a rarity

since the skin deteriorate so easily two

of these women tattooed their lower

backs and the drawings were simple they

were mostly pictures including that same

chubby dwarf we just talked about

best

he also had a side hustle as the

protector of women during childbirth

now would you believe me if I told you

ancient Egyptians invented robots no

well that's because that's not entirely

true sure they were astronomers

mathematicians and engineers and somehow

they also squeezed an eccentric

invention into that package an automated

deity some scientists called haor this

wooden statue had been in the

Metropolitan Museum of Art for years

before someone noticed it secret with

the help of an x-ray machine specialist

discovered a mechanical oper ating

system inside it the pulley like axis

goes from the statue's shoulder to her

left leg when the system rotates the

statue raises and lowers her hand hey

pick me pick me I got my hand up here

that's it for today so hey if you
