Mummy

If there is no context of how the object is found or where, then important information we can learn from that knowledge is also lost. Some of the smallest details can produce the best information. The ticks found on the dog mummy reveal how, when, and where she died, as well as the treatment of the corpse after death. Had excavators not been careful with the artifact, and recorded all data, no matter how small, there would not be the same information about the dog’s burial…

The origin of the smallpox disease is unknown. It is thought to date back to the Egyptian Empire around the 3rd century BC.

Early written narratives of the smallpox disease also appeared in India in the 7th century and in Asia Minor in the 10th century (ACIP 2003). The Smallpox disease, which was…

Have you ever thought about The Lost City of Pompeii? Well, lucky for you, I did some research on the place and gathered some pretty interesting facts and theories about Pompeii. It is located in Italy's Campania Region, near the coast of the Bay of Naples. The city of Pompeii was completely demolished by a volcano by the name of “Mount Vesuvius” in 79 A.D. Therefore, it destroyed almost the entire city. But this gives the archaeologists a chance to look at what's left and draw…

The Incas arose around the 12th century A.D. in the Andes region, but they were not conquered until 1572 by the Spanish. The Inca’s started truly expanding under the rule of their eighth emperor,…

To go back in time, to stand in the footsteps of Howard Carter, would be a moment of ecstasy. I can only imagine the anticipation that would fill my soul, as my conscience reminded me that I must remain calm, as many eyes stood by watching my every move. A seven year journey that I had embarked upon and finally my treasure, King Tutankhamen treasures for his eternity have been discovered or had they been pillaged. Finding myself a bit reluctant, I imagine I would begin to shake as it came time…
