I am having fun this few days. I am very enjoyed and relaxed here. I am neither anxious nor nervous about getting the results. I had finished it, so what is the rush to get the results. What is done cannot be undone, right?
Have you ever wondered how Egypt is and why are there mummies in Egypt? There are lots of fascinating things at Egypt and I am going to tell you about it.
Once described by Herodotus, a Greek historian, as a land of ‘unspeakable greatness’, Egypt is famous for being the birthplace of one of the greatest civilizations in the world. Today, its spectacular monuments, which include the Great Sphinx of Giza, one of the largest statues on Earth carved out of a single stone, and the Giza Pyramids, continue to amaze and inspire.
Egypt is situated in north-eastern Africa, and Cairo, its largest city, is the capital. The river Nile, which runs through Egypt, is the longest river in the world. Ancient Egyptians used a form of hieroglyphs, which are actually small pictures.
Ancient Egyptians believed that the body had to be preserved because it was essential in one’s afterlife; Mummification – which dates back to 3300 BC – was practiced to preserve dead bodies. The process involved removing the internal organs, covering the ‘emptied’ body in a special kind of salt, and lastly wrapping it in sheets of white linen, followed by canvas. In most cases, the mummy would lay in a tomb. One of the most famous mummies in history is that of Rameses II, or Rameses the Great, who was an Egyptian Pharaoh. Rameses’ mummy is now on display at Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
