Paris:  An assassin slit the throat of Egypt’s last great pharaoh at the climax of a bitter succession battle, scientists said on Monday in a report on a 3,000-year-old royal murder. Forensic technology suggests Ramses III, a king revered as a god, met his death at the hand of a killer, or killers, sent by his conniving wife and ambitious son, they said. And a cadaver known as the “Screaming Mummy” could be that of the son himself, possibly forced to commit suicide after the plot, they added. Computed tomography (CT) imaging of the mummy of Ramses III shows that the pharaoh’s windpipe and major arteries were slashed, inflicting a wound 70 millimetres (2.75 inches) wide and reaching almost to the spine, the investigators said.

Whether you are caught up in the Mayan prophecy, planetary alignment, super volcanoes, or polar shifts, all these theories emerged only after 2012 was targeted as yet another doomsday date. You may recall a few other doomsday hoaxes in your lifetime: 1982 (planetary alignment, poisoning by the passing of Halley's Comet, and the rapture), 1988 (another rapture), 1997 (aliens in the wake of Hale-Bopp), 2000 (the Millennium Bug), 2003 (Planet X), 2011 (ooh another rapture). Many people are wired to respond to doomsday propaganda, and it's only through critical thinking that you'll find the truth about December 2012. I'm not going to tel

DO U KNOW HOW MUMMIES ARE MADE???????????????

Image
The word mummy derived from an early spectators who presumed that mummies were covered with bitumen, which meant in Persian moumia and therefore took the modern name mummy. no matter it is been preserved naturally or deliberately, all mummies must survive along the duration of time. Gaining most of its fame from Egypt, mummies also exist in many other ancient cultures and countries. Countries such as China revealed the Cherchen mummies, which were preserved almost perfectly. Another place, such as South America, revealed three children from the Incas who were relics of a sacrificial ritual and were found frozen atop Argentina’s Mount Llullaillaco, which is about 22,000 feet high.  Although mummification existed in other cultures, eternal life was the main focus of all Ancient Egyptians, which meant preserving the body ever and forever. MUMMIFICATION-  HOW ARE THEY MADE?????? The first attempt to preserve the dead is recorded as early as 3000 BC. After the death of an Egyptian,
