Did you know that the first mummies known to us did not appear in ancient Egypt, but in South America? And in ancient Egypt, were catfish, ibis, crocodiles and even sacred bulls? And in the Empire of the Incas of the mummies of the rulers continued to sit on the thrones and give wise advice to their successors?
Mummies are the most important witnesses of the history of mankind who can tell us - how the people of the past lived and what they had eaten, how they dressed and what they loved to play. This book tells about many famous mummies: Pharaoh Tutankhamone, the primitive hunter of Etsi, a man from the crowdrack and Chinese aristocrat Sin Zhui, children sacrificed by the Lewlyako volcano, and the unsuccessful robber of Elmere Mackerdi train, the adventures of which were completely incredible after death.
And you will also learn about modern methods of studying mummies and about the ways of using mummies in the household! Municipies from mummies, paint and paper from mummies, fertilizer and fuel for locomotives. Is it all true?
The text of Fleur Doge is complemented by the illustrations of Sebastien Murren, who depicts all the characters with humor, love and attention to the details - from the cat to the scientist -archaeologist. His funny and slightly ridiculous characters are unlikely to scare anyone.
Author: Journalist Fleur Douge studied psychology and zoology and wrote a number of books about animals and plants for children. Laureate of the French American Vespucci Prize of 2015 in the nomination of a book for children
