Through these three iconic landmarks - the Sphinx of Giza, the Temple of Edfu, and the Temple of Kom Ombo - one can glimpse the silent, unceasing dedication of archaeologists and their teams. Decades were devoted to the excavation and meticulous restoration of these authentic Egyptian marvels. Although the photograph of the Sphinx is dated to 1860, its origins may lie elsewhere."

King Tutankhamun's tomb was the first and only king's tomb found intact in the world! 😯

After 15 years of excavation, British archaeologists Howard Carter and Lord Carnaphron found it in southern Egypt, in the Valley of the Kings, in 1922 ⛏️

After its release, "King Tut" became a media phenomenon in Europe and the United States.

Songs, books and films were made in his honour: it was a true 'vanity-mania'.

Interestingly, the king's fame came only from his belongings found in his tomb, preserved for more than 3 thousand years (!)

Inside it were about 5,000 jewels and statues, 130 wands, 100 costumes, 6 chariots, two golden thrones, and dozens of weapons.

His ancient Egyptian collection, which seemed to emerge from the box of time, ultimately revolutionized European fashion and architecture.

In British society, men began wearing coats with buttons depicting Tutankhamun's coffin, while women wore scarab-shaped brooches.

The Art Deco style, found in jewelry and architecture, is deeply inspired by the treasures of the Pharaoh 💎

His death mask made of gold and precious stones such as obsidian and quartz practically became a symbol of ancient Egypt (Image 1)

Tutankhamun was buried inside 3 coffins, all of which were extensively decorated with wood and gold (Photo 9).

They were all inside a large quartzite box, decorated with the image of 4 Egyptian gods: Isis, Nephthys, Neith, and Selkes (Photo 3).

However, the life of the Egyptian king was not so glorious: Tutankhamun died at the age of 19 due to successive malaria and bone degeneration.

The boy suffered from several health complications, as it was the result of an incestuous relationship between his father, Aquinaton, and his sister.

He was unable to walk without the aid of a cane, as his feet were weak and he constantly suffered from epilepsy.

However, more than 33 centuries after Tutankhamun ruled Egypt, and 101 years after the discovery of his tomb, its history and treasures continue to impress the entire world.

In 2019 Scientists have found liquid BLOOD in the frozen remains of a 42,000-year-old foal of an extinct horse that was preserved in Siberian permafrost .

Scientists have discovered liquid blood inside the carcass of an extinct foal preserved for 42,000 years in the Siberian permafrost, it was announced today.

It is believed to be the oldest blood ever found in the world - and boosts hopes of cloning back to life the long-gone Lenskaya species of prehistoric horse.

The discovery was made by an international team of scientists who are also hoping in future to clone the extinct woolly mammoth from genetic material frozen in permafrost.

the foal appeared to have been just two weeks old when it died, likely by drowning in mud which then became part of the permafrost.

"An autopsy showed the foal carcass was extremely well-preserved, the body even without deformation," he added. "The hair cover also preserved most parts of the carcass, especially at the head and legs."

Moai statues are massive megaliths at Easter Island, and these are what this island is famous for. The moais were built in approximately 1400 - 1650 A.D. by the natives of this island also known as Rapa Nui.

Many know them as the Easter Island heads. This is a misconception from having seen photos of statues in the volcano Rano Raraku partitially covered up with soil. Truth is that all of these "heads" have full bodies.

There are around 1000 statues, up to 86 tons tons in weight and 10 m in height, though average is around half of that. 95% of the moais were carved from the volcano Rano Raraku. This location was chosen since it consists to a great extent of tuff, which is what the moais from this volcano consist of. Tuff is compressed volcanic ash and is easy to carve, which was necessary since the natives had no metal to carve with, but used only stone tools; the so called toki.

Persepolis A Glimpse into Ancient Persian Splendor

Persepolis is an archaeological marvel that offers a captivating window into the grandeur of ancient Persia. Located in present-day Iran, Persepolis stands as a testament to the architectural prowess, artistic finesse, and cultural richness of the Persian Empire.

Constructed during the reign of Darius the Great in the 6th century BCE, Persepolis served as the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire, one of the world's most powerful and expansive empires at the time. The city was meticulously designed and meticulously crafted over several generations, symbolizing the opulence and authority of the Persian kings.

Persepolis was not only a symbol of political power but also a hub of cultural exchange. Scholars, artists, and craftsmen from different regions of the empire converged in Persepolis, contributing to its rich artistic heritage. The carvings, sculptures, and murals found in the ruins depict scenes from daily life, religious rituals, and mythical narratives, providing valuable insights into the beliefs and customs of the time.

In recognition of its outstanding universal value, Persepolis was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. Efforts have been made to preserve and restore the site, allowing future generations to marvel at its splendor and gain a deeper understanding of the history and legacy of ancient Persia.

Visiting Persepolis is an immersive experience that transports visitors back in time to a bygone era of grandeur and magnificence. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Persian Empire and the remarkable achievements of its people. Persepolis stands as a cultural treasure, inviting us to appreciate the beauty of the past and reflect on the interconnectedness of civilizations throughout history.

Magnificence and Creativity of Persian Iranians in Architecture and Construction

Persian architecture stands as a testament to a rich heritage and deep cultural legacy spanning several centuries. Iranian architecture is distinguished by its magnificence and creativity in design and detail, blending aesthetics with functionality in a masterful manner. Persian art in architecture is a fusion of Islamic and ancient Persian styles, giving it a distinct and unique identity.

The Jameh Mosque of Isfahan is one of the prime examples of the splendor of Iranian architecture, characterized by its prominent design, multi-arched dome, and intricate artistic embellishments. Additionally, it is renowned for its expansive spaces and ornate mihrabs that highlight the beauty of the structure.

Considering these examples and many others, it is undeniable that Persian Iranians have made significant contributions to the world of architecture and construction, where aesthetics and technology converge exceptionally to shape unique landmarks that express Iran's rich culture and history.

A 7000-6000 year old burial of a young woman (aged around 20 when she died) and her newborn baby

Found in Vedbaek, Denmark, this grave tells a tragic but curious story of a young woman and her newborn baby. The woman, who is thought to have been 20 years old at the time of her death, is believed to have passed away during the birth of her child, in which the baby did not survive.

What makes this burial particularly intriguing is the presence of 200 red deer teeth placed by the woman's head and the newborn cradled in a swan's wing with a flint knife set at its hip.

The presence of animal parts suggests that the people in this area greatly appreciated nature. It shows that the people at this time used different essentials available in their environment to perform rituals or to create art.
