										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The world has always been mysterious and there are skulls discovered by humans with extremely strange shapes and some of them so far have not been able to prove to which species it belongs.</strong><br />
<span id="more-22801"></span> <strong> elongated skull</strong> </p>
<p> Perhaps the most common of the strange skulls ever discovered by humans are the elongated skulls. Many of these skulls have been found in Peru, especially near the Nazca Road and the Paracas peninsula. New finds are still made on a regular basis by grave robbers, who offer them on the black market. These skulls are characterized by their flat, elongated shape, and in many of them the mummy&#8217;s hair and skin are still attached. These skulls can be found in other places such as private museums &#8211; the Paracas History Museum and the Ica regional museums. Similar skulls have also been found around the world, including in Bolivia, France, Norway, Malta, Egypt, northern Iraq, Ukraine, Siberia, and South Africa (aboriginal people say the skulls are skulls). belongs to the Boskops) and Vanuatu in Oceania. <img fifu-featured="1" decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/c55905180a5ae304ba4b.jpg" width="625" height="763"> Current science suggests that such a deformed skull shape is due to an old custom of the Aboriginal people, who decapitated babies&#8217; heads to the point that they were deformed. But why this phenomenon seems to happen around the world, in unrelated cultures, is still not explained. In fact, these discovered skulls are sometimes almost twice the size of the average human skull. Many of these skulls are also missing some of the grooves that the average person possesses, including the frontal ridge and the sagittal sulcus. However, they have an additional groove, running diagonally across the forehead. The bones of these skulls are usually much thicker and more solid than our own. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/8010bd51b2135b4d0202.jpg" width="625" height="863"> Meanwhile, the custom of beheading children does indeed exist in some cultures, perhaps as a result of the admiration that people have for their religious deities, who have long head. They imitate the shape of the head in the hope of becoming like the gods. In Egypt, people find not only skulls but also decorations, wall carvings of people with long heads in a considerable number, many traces that they are from the ancient time. greatness of the pharaohs. Egyptologists consider these to be the stylistic descriptions of commoners for royal headdresses. But unusually long skulls have also been found in mummies, such as those of King Tutankhamun &#8211; which are unusually long compared to others. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/8930b571ba33536d0a22.jpg" width="625" height="416"> <em> Replica of King Tutankhamun&#8217;s mummy at an exhibition in New York.</em> Some of the long skulls of the Paracas peninsula have been tested for DNA, but the DNA found is unlike any existing life form on Earth. Preston Nichols, a technical engineer who worked on the extremely secretive Montauk Project near New York, thinks these are the people who were worshiped like gods in ancient Egypt, they all had longer heads and double heads. eyes bigger than ours. However, there are many conspiracy theories that these long skulls belong to aliens from the Sirius B system. Indigenous tribes in the mountains of China, Tibet and the Dogon tribe of Mali, Europe Phi, also tells of long-standing contacts with guests from the Sirius star system. The priests of the Dogon tribe told Western researchers about the existence of a third star in the Sirius star system &#8211; a small star named Sirius C, much earlier than mainstream science. discovered it in 1995. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/54126e536111884fd100.jpg" width="625" height="403"> <em> 25 skeletons were found in the village of Onavas (Northwest Mexico) in 2012. 13 of them have elongated skulls, 5 of which have strange teeth: pointed incisors and flat fangs. While much remains unclear about the tombs, the team suggests that the difference in skulls and teeth is &#8220;a result of the customs used by the wealthy during that time&#8221;. While in other simple tombs, people could not find abnormal signs in the skull.</em> <strong> Anunnaki&#8217;s skull</strong> Besides the elongated skulls, these skulls are believed by many conspiracy theorists to belong to an anthropomorphic reptile from the constellation Orion and the planet Niburu &#8211; more than 200,000 years ago, extraterrestrials. This earth was responsible for creating our species, homo sapiens. They mixed the DNA of their own species with the DNA of the Bushmen of South Africa, who were originally from Lemuria. In this way, they created a new race. The Anunnaki needed gold dust to protect the waning atmosphere of the planet Nibiru from the harsh effects of the universe. After this event, the Anunnaki people still regularly visit humans. They have interfered with human development in negative ways, even until recently. Furthermore, researcher Bill Ryan from the Camelot Project, says that the Anunnaki have a remarkably large chin when compared to humans. This description is consistent with many of the skulls that have been discovered, which have a large, broad chin. In the photos below, this non-human jaw shape can be clearly seen and certain cranial grooves are missing. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/9c94a5d5aa9743c91a86.jpg" width="625" height="497"> <em> Above: a human skull. Below: Anunnaki skull found near the old site of Puma Punku, in Bolivia. The human skull has a narrow chin, while the Bolivian skull, probably belonging to the Anunnaki, has a wide chin. On the right, you can see that the Bolivian skull cannot be human: the sagittal groove, which runs from the center of the head to the back of the head, is not found.</em> <strong> Starchild skull</strong> This skull was discovered by an American couple in a mine in Mexico City, Chihuahua. They then took the skull home and kept it as a souvenir in their garage in El Paso, Texas, for the rest of their lives. In 1998, the strange skull was owned by two other residents of El Paso &#8211; Ray and Melanie Young. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/8de6b5a7bae553bb0af4.jpg" width="625" height="625"> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/685b5f1a5058b906e049.jpg" width="625" height="625"> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/1e5428152757ce099746.jpg" width="625" height="625"> However, Melanie is a nurse and believes that this skull is a human defect. so she gave it to author and researcher Lloyd Pye (then 18 years old), who had written a book about humans like Bigfoot in America and Yeti in the Himalayas, and about the influence of Anunnaki on the development of humans. human development. Pye was fascinated by the skull (of which only the upper part remained) and tested its DNA several times. This was repeated over and over again and showed that the skull was hundreds of years old and the mother of the &#8220;creature&#8221; must have been human, but the father&#8217;s DNA showed that it was not present anywhere. anywhere on Earth. Pye named the creature &#8220;Starchild&#8221; and proposed the skull to science. However, they were not concerned and assumed that it was part of the malformed skull of a child who was likely to die from congenital hydrocephalus. Later, a similar skull was found in Peru. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/9ee4aba5a4e74db914f6.jpg" width="625" height="392"> <em> Lloyd Pye (1946 &#8211; 2013) with the &#8220;Starchild&#8221; skull.</em> <strong> Sealand Skull</strong> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/92cba68aa9c8409619d9.jpg" width="625" height="670"> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/471874597b1b9245cb0a.jpg" width="625" height="660"> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/de19ec58e31a0a44530b.jpg" width="625" height="537"> The Sealand skull was discovered in 2007 in Olstykke, Denmark by workers replacing sewer pipes. Because of its strange shape, most scientists assumed it was a joke and showed no interest in studying it. Only in 2010 this skull was first examined at the College of Veterinary Medicine in Denmark. The researchers concluded that it was real, but they did not know to which species on Earth it belonged. This skull is larger than that of Homo sapiens, so they initially suspected it might be some kind of horse. However, further examination revealed that it also did not belong to the horse species. The skull was then sent to the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen. Carbon dating revealed that it belonged to an organism that lived between 1200 and 1280 BC, but they were unable to provide further information about the skull&#8217;s origin. So far this is the only skull discovered and many digging around the area where this skull was discovered has not found any other bone fragments on the body. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/226613271c65f53bac74.jpg" width="625" height="392"> <strong> Andahuaylillas&#8217; mummy</strong> In 2011, Renato Davila Riquelme of the Privado Ritos Andinos museum in Cuzco, Peru, made an amazing discovery &#8211; a mysterious mummy with an elongated skull was found in the city of Andahuaylillas, a southern province of Quispicanchi, Peru This mummy has a strangely shaped head with a length of 50cm, but the body is only as small as that of a newborn baby (the skull is almost as long as the body). This mummy&#8217;s teeth are fully grown, but have fewer molars than humans. The eye socket is also much larger than that of a human. Its fontanel is open &#8211; usually only in babies under the age of one. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_14_101_39184547/559e65df6a9d83c3da8c.jpg" width="625" height="634"> Davila Riquelme invited three anthropologists from Spain and Russia to examine. They examined this strange mummy and concluded that it could not be human. They wanted to do a DNA study on the rest of the eyeball in the right eye socket to identify genetic DNA and thereby help determine if this was a human. However, the results of that study have never been made public.</p>

<p> <em> Archaeologists examine the mummy.</em> Everyone thinks this is an &#8220;unprecedented&#8221; archaeological find, but the truth is just a sophisticated scam. <strong> Shocking discovery</strong> In October 2000, police in Karachi, Pakistan received a tip that a man named Ali Akbar was selling a mummy for 600 million rupees, or about $11 million. According to the source, it was not an ordinary mummy, but &#8220;Princess of Persia&#8221;. Immediately, the police raided Akbar&#8217;s house, searched and questioned the suspect. Akbar then took the police to the home of his accomplice, Wali Mohammad Reeki, in the desert region of Baluchistan province. Here, the mummy in question along with the coffin was found. Reeki admitted to buying the artifact from a man named Sharif Shah Bakhi. This person told him that the body was discovered after an earthquake near Quetta, on the border between Iran and Afghanistan. Two men are arrested for smuggling antiquities, but the mystery of the mummy has only just begun. If it is true &#8220;Princess of Persia&#8221;, this will be a very important discovery, because no mummies of the Persians (present-day Iran) have been found. The mummy was brought to the National Museum in Karachi for experts to analyze and many mysteries surrounding this ancient man were revealed. The body was mummified in the Egyptian style, with a mask and a golden crown, placed on a reed mat. But the most interesting find was a breastplate covering the mummy&#8217;s chest, on which the ancient Persian inscription, &#8220;I am the daughter of the great king Xerxes. Mazereka protects me. I am Rhodugune.” In addition, the gilded wooden coffin is also decorated with carved lines also in ancient Persian letters. It all seems to show that this is indeed the Princess of Persia. Pakistani archaeologist, Ahmad Hasan Dani, of Islamabad&#8217;s Quaid-e-Azam University, excitedly announced in a press conference that, from what was recorded, the mummy was indeed a Ba princess. Tu, lived around 600 BC. This event sparked a dispute between Iran and Pakistan over the ownership of this unprecedented archaeological find. The Iranian Cultural Heritage Organization declared the &#8220;princess&#8221; to be a member of the royal family of Persia and demanded that Pakistan return the mummy, and even the Taliban movement in Afghanistan claimed it was their own artifact. <strong> Unexpected truth</strong> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_06_181_39090463/8d8b009512d7fb89a2c6.jpg" width="625" height="589"> <em> Mummy &#8220;Princess of Persia&#8221; in coffin.</em> The fierce arguments between the parties have become a political problem, easily leading to conflicts. Meanwhile, some other archaeologists have raised doubts that this is the &#8220;Princess of Persia&#8221;, even a mummy. An independent examination was conducted and the archaeologists went from surprise to surprise. First of all, ancient linguists found that the writing on the mummy&#8217;s breast shield and the coffin was written by someone who was not fluent in the ancient Persian language, rife with grammatical errors, and even traces of pencil marks for inscriptions, which pencils were only invented in the 16th century. In addition, a piece of coffin was examined, it was only about 250 years old, and the carpet underneath the body was discovered to be only… 5 years old. Unusual signs were also found in the body of the &#8220;princess&#8221;, such as the delicate tendons and ligaments of the middle ear that were still intact, despite thousands of years and the mummification process. did not follow the strict methods of Egypt. For example, the heart was removed, which the Egyptians never did, as it was considered important to regenerate a person&#8217;s body when they went to the next world. Multiple CAT scans (computerized axial tomography), accelerated mass spectrometry dating, radiocarbon testing, and X-ray scans all proved this to be a hoax. delicate. In the end, scientists determined, there is no &#8220;Princess of Persia&#8221;, but this is the body of a 16-year-old girl, who may have died in 1996, not 600 BC. Not only that, there is evidence that the girl was murdered for this fraudulent purpose. Experts also discovered that the &#8220;mummy&#8221; had died from trauma caused by the force of the impact, which broke her cervical and back vertebrae. Her organs were removed, her body cavity filled with table salt and baking soda, a fake embalming process. All of this was likely done within 24 hours of her death. From an antiquities smuggling case to a murder case. It is said that a group of fake antiquities traders brutally killed this poor girl, or at least stole her body shortly after her death, to be processed into a donkey mummy. sell for money. However, although the police questioned everyone involved in the sale of the mummy, as well as several other suspects, it led to nothing. In the end, not only was no one arrested in connection with this young woman&#8217;s death, but the victim was also not identified. She languished in museums for a while, before being buried in 2008 by the Pakistan-based charity Edhi Foundation. Although she was finally laid to rest, she remained anonymous, unclaimed, and the cause of death was not clear, forever referred to simply as &#8220;Princess of Persia&#8221;.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The evolution of the virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic has similarities to the Covid-19 pandemic, such as successive outbreaks with many different strains, and the following outbreaks are more dangerous than the previous one.</strong><br />
<span id="more-20641"></span> When studying virus samples of the last century, German scientists determined that the Influenza virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic had mutated into new strains, like the corona virus in the Covid-19 pandemic. The discovery by scientists at the Robert Koch Institute in Berlin could explain why later outbreaks of the 1918 flu were worse than the first.</p>
<p> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_29_15_39007097/2a225d8c4acea390fadf.jpg" width="625" height="351"> <em> The warehouse was converted into an isolation area for infected people during the 1918 flu pandemic. Photo: According to Live Science</em> &#8220;The research results, although not directly applicable to the Covid-19 pandemic, show that humans can eventually overcome their variants. This is being expected by the world in the context of the corona virus outbreak. evolved with many dangerous mutations today,&#8221; evolutionary biologist Sébastien Calvignac-Spencer, lead author of the study, told Live Science. According to Spencer, as now, when focusing on studying the virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic, the research team questioned whether its new variants worked differently from the original? Since then, the team has studied six human lungs dating from the pandemic years of 1918, which are preserved in formalin at pathological archives in Germany and Austria. The researchers determined that three of the six sample lungs &#8211; two from young soldiers who died in Berlin, the other from a young woman who died in Munich &#8211; contained the 1918 flu virus. &#8220;The virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic is still around today. But it&#8217;s more attenuated, mainly because we are descendants of people who survived the outbreak 103 years ago. Because So we&#8217;ve inherited some form of genetic immunity,&#8221; explains Calvignac-Spencer. Estimates suggest that the 1918 strain of influenza infected about 1 billion people, while the global population was only 2 billion. About 50-100 million people may have died in three consecutive outbreaks then. The first wave of the pandemic occurred in early 1918, it was less deadly than later waves: &#8220;The preserved lungs of two German soldiers were determined to be dead at this time&#8221;, the research team at the Institute of Robert Koch confirmed. The researchers extracted viral RNA from those lung samples. Both German soldiers died on the same day and when decoding the genome of the virus that killed them there was almost no difference. Spencer added: &#8220;But the form of the flu virus found in the soldiers&#8217; lungs, is somewhat genetically different from the form of the virus that infected the young woman who died in Munich. Presumably, the woman. did not survive a subsequent outbreak.&#8221; The scientists also compared viral genomes from the US and Germany, and conducted laboratory studies with synthetic copies of virus samples. They wanted to learn to assess the infectivity and replication ability of different strains inside cells. The findings of German scientists also show that the 1918 flu virus has mutated to make the next outbreak stronger and more dangerous than the previous one, by evolving to overcome the human ability to &#8220;defence&#8221;. The genetic mutations that emerged between the first and second waves may have made the virus better adapted for human-to-human transmission, rather than between birds, its natural host. The other mutation may have changed the way the virus interacts with a human protein called MxA, which helps regulate the body&#8217;s immune response to new pathogens. Although the scientists are not sure how the variants changed the &#8220;strength&#8221; of the virus, &#8220;it can be predicted that these changes helped the virus avoid one of the mechanisms by which cells respond.&#8221; to kill the flu virus,&#8221; Calvignac-Spencer said. The evolution of the virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic has similarities to the current Covid-19 pandemic, such as consecutive outbreaks with many different strains, and the following outbreaks are more dangerous than the previous one. . Thanks to the advancement of science, today when understanding the Covid-19 pandemic, researchers can better understand the 1918 influenza pandemic: &#8220;The more we understand about the current pandemic, that The more we can understand the pandemic in the past, rather than vice versa,&#8221; Calvignac-Spencer emphasized. One significant advance is that researchers have been able to accurately sequence the viral genome in human tissue preserved in formalin for more than 100 years &#8211; something that has hitherto been thought to be very difficult. &#8220;Thanks to new techniques, the study ended up being much easier than we expected,&#8221; added Calvignac-Spencer, adding: &#8220;We can now sequence the viral genome from infected humans. buried in permafrost for up to 1,000 years, because the cold can help preserve DNA even longer.&#8221; The team of German scientists also wanted to sequence viral genomes that could have been stored in the bodies of ancient Egyptian mummies &#8211; the earliest mummies are about 5,000 years old.&#8221;The mummies were prepared to prevent biological processes, and that&#8217;s exactly what we want. So we will also embark on research to better understand other diseases of the past,&#8221; the German scientist said. about the group&#8217;s future plans.</p>

<p> <em> The laboratory where Frankenstein&#8217;s monster was born in the movie released in 1931. Photo: Universal Studios Licensing LLC. </em> On a stormy, rainy night, the mad scientist is trying to revive an inanimate monster he created by piecing together parts of an exhumed corpse. After receiving a high-voltage electric shock, it suddenly moved its long, bony fingers and raised one arm. &#8220;It&#8217;s alive! It&#8217;s alive! It&#8217;s alive!&#8221; shouted the doctor. It was a memorable scene in the Universal Pictures film adaptation of Mary Shelley&#8217;s horror novel Frankenstein (or The Modern Prometheus) (first published 1818), starring Mary Shelley. by Vladimir Karloff as the monster. The work became a blockbuster at the box office when it hit the public&#8217;s taste for horror cinema, and paved the way for Universal to release a series of iconic monster movies later, including The Mummy (Mummy), Dracula (Vampire), Creature from the Back Lagoon (Creature from the Black Lagoon), … Whether emerging from the swamp, lying in an Egyptian stone coffin or patched up like Frankenstein, … all these monsters are the product of fascination (and sometimes even fear). ) of the community towards science. More than just the creative work of the design and makeup team, the knowledge (which may still be limited) about amphibians, mummification, anatomy &#8230; has been borrowed to bring to mind. aghast. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_21_304_38921179/bafd3f672425cd7b9434.jpg" width="625" height="468"> <em> Frankenstein movie poster. Photo: Universal Studios Licensing LLC. </em> Shelley was only 18 years old when she wrote Frankenstein while on vacation in Lake Geneva. A special lover of science, she often attends lectures to keep up to date with new trends and research, including the relatively new field of electrophysiology. She was very interested in the work of 18th-century Italian scientist Luigi Galvani, whose initial experiments showed that electric currents could cause (dead) frog legs to twitch, and then used it as inspiration for Dr. Frankenstein. It was also during this period that scientists began to learn about the nature of resuscitation techniques—sometimes bringing back a person thought to have drowned by manipulating air into their trachea and squeezing their abdomen. Shelly&#8217;s own mother had experienced such an emergency when she jumped off the Putney Bridge on the Thames, two years before she was born. More than a century later, Universal adapted her novel into a Frankenstein movie, and then released another monster classic: The Mummy (1932) &#8211; also starring Boris Karloff as the monk Imhotep, a master of mummification; The film tells the story of a soul punished by being buried alive and accidentally released to return to earth to cause chaos. Before that, in 1922, a team led by British archaeologist Howard Carter opened the tomb of the famous King Tutankhamun, which has remained a mystery for 3,000 years. The event ignited the curiosity and imagination of millions around the world, and sparked a passion for ancient Egypt – decades after the original release of The Mummy. “Monsters have always been a mixture of conscious and unconscious fear.” – Leo Braudy, author of Haunted: On Ghosts, Witches, Vampires, Zombies and Other Monsters of the Natural and Supernatural Worlds , Witches, Vampires, Mummy and other monsters of the Natural and Supernatural worlds) commented. For example, the fear of vampire bites in the movie Dracula (released in 1931) was based on Bram Stoker&#8217;s medieval horror novel (published 1897) and the play Dracula ( performed in 1924) by Hamilton Deane and John L. Balderston. Vampire legends existed for hundreds of years before Stoker published the novel, but researchers believe it was deadly mid-19th-century epidemics like cholera and tuberculosis that inspired and spread vampire myths. “In the absence of science, vampire theory is easy to accept. If someone gets TB and spreads it to other family members, they&#8217;ll blame the vampires instead of the bacteria.” — Sarah Crawford, longtime curator at the Natural History Museum in Los Angeles , identify. In the movie Creature From the Black Lagoon (released in 1954), designer Milicent Patrick did a lot of research on prehistoric animals and sea creatures to shape the vision for the character &#8220;Gill-Man&#8221;. She is especially fascinated by the illustrations of reptiles and amphibians that lived about 400 million years ago on Earth. Director Jack Arnold drew inspiration for Gill-Man from the story of the long-extinct coelacanth and thought to be the ancestor of land animals, with unusual fins (which look like like limbs) allowing it to crawl from the ocean to the land. The connection between the sea and land animals, along with the story that the producer heard at a dinner party about a half-human, half-fish creature living in the Amazon River, &#8230; all have been brought into creation by Patrick. Figure. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_21_304_38921179/14778fed94af7df124be.jpg" width="625" height="503"> <em> Designer Milicent Patrick sketched the sea monster Gill-Man in Creature from the Back Lagoon. Photo: Universal Studios Licensing LLC.</em> Science has not only inspired characters on screen, but has also led to technical experiments and inventions in the field of filmmaking. While staging Dr. Frankenstein&#8217;s lab, designer Kenneth Strickfaden &#8211; who spent many years as an electrician &#8211; devised techniques to simulate ball lightning and electrical discharges. And artist Jack Pierce &#8211; the head of Universal&#8217;s makeup department &#8211; spent eight hours with Karloff on The Mummy, using a mixture made of fuller&#8217;s earth and more than 150 feet of ice. gauze. It was the science behind Hollywood&#8217;s iconic monsters that made the movies of this golden age even more &#8220;horrifying&#8221;. In terms of perception, perhaps most viewers know those creatures do not exist. But the thrill and excitement of watching the dramas on the screen made them think, What if they really existed? “Horror movies have been continuously produced, more than any other genre. Because they (monsters and horror things) are, to a certain extent, born within our selves, and as such can never fail,” Braudy said.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>&#8216;Valley of Kings&#8217;, one of the most important archaeological treasures in Egypt, where the dead are buried, is world famous for its many unearthed mummies and artifacts.</strong><br />
<span id="more-12954"></span> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_05_181_38730561/cdd7e90cca4e23107a5f.jpg" width="625" height="469"> </p>
<p> <em> Tattoos discovered on mummies.</em> Recently, through studying mummies at this site, scientists have discovered that ancient Egyptians also tattooed and they are looking for the meaning of those tattoos. <strong> Tattoo marks under infrared rays</strong> Artisans and workers during the construction of the &#8220;Valley of Kings&#8221; made their home in a site called Deir el Medina. Here, many tombs and many other artifacts were excavated and revealed many mysteries. In 2014, archaeologist Anne Austin, of the University of Missouri &#8211; St.. Louis, USA, and colleagues at the French Institute of Oriental Archeology have studied 3,000-year-old mummies and have made interesting findings. While examining the mummies with infrared light, they found on the seven bodies there were many large tattoos that had never been seen before. The effects of time made the mummy&#8217;s skin discolor and darken, but the tattoo marks were still quite visible under infrared light. Through analysis, experts find that these tattoos have many complex details. One of the mummies mentioned above has more than 30 tattoos on the neck, arms, shoulders and back, including symbols, Egyptian hieroglyphs, scarabs, lotus flowers, Horus eyes, and patterns. crosses, and strange motifs. On another mummy, the mark clearly depicts baboons, along with other animals such as cobras and cows. All tattoos have sacred meanings. For example, the bull tattoo is associated with the goddess Hathor, one of the most important deities of ancient Egypt, the embodiment of joy, love, and maternal love, often depicted as a woman. has a bull head and ears. All of the mummies have tattoos of various motifs, with the same tattoo technique as today, with ink and needle tools. <strong> What is the purpose?</strong> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_05_181_38730561/8e1ca1c782856bdb3294.jpg" width="625" height="659"> <em> Scientist Anne Austin is working on ancient Egyptian mummies.</em> The purpose of tattooing for the ancient Egyptians is still unknown. Many theories suggest that tattoos are related to fertility, a person&#8217;s status, a ritual symbol, a sign of worship, paranormal knowledge, or a representation of a person&#8217;s role. priestess. Interestingly, most tattooed Egyptian mummies found to date have been female, suggesting that the tattoo could have been reserved for healers or mighty nuns. Notably, the tattoos are all over the body areas that are not covered. Horus&#8217;s eyes were placed on his neck, shoulders and back so that when people looked at this woman from any angle, they would see god&#8217;s eyes looking back at them. These findings contradict some previous Egyptian studies that deny women practicing religion. They are seen as objects of lust, or only passively participate in the male-dominated religious system. The characterization of new tattoos on mummies points to the fact that the role of women in religion in ancient Egypt was more complex than previous assumptions about their identity. Although tattoo designs are mostly only available to women, at least one male with the tattoo was discovered using similar Austin&#8217;s technique. This male mummy, simply called &#8220;Gebelein Man A&#8221;, has been on display at the British Museum for more than a century, has markings on its arms that have long been believed to be stains and ignored. In 2018, Daniel Antoine, a British Museum anthropologist using Austin&#8217;s technique on the mummy, discovered the traces were actually tattoos of a wild gaur and a Barbary sheep. , is said to represent status, power and masculine solidity. A female mummy on display was also found tattooed with S-shaped symbols that had never been noticed before. Both sets of tattoos are also important as the above mummies are even older than the ones found at Deir el Medina, more than 5,000 years ago, the period before the Egyptian hieroglyphs were used. . The bodies of these two were buried in ordinary graves but naturally preserved by the heat, arid desert. With these new findings, it is thought that tattoos were probably more widespread in Ancient Egypt than previously thought. The use of infrared imaging techniques to re-examine Egyptian mummies is an effective way to learn more about this custom and gain insight into mysterious people. Austin hopes it will shed some light on this dim area of ​​history. &#8220;The tattoos reveal new information that was unprecedented in the textual documents, helping us to better understand the role of women in ancient Egypt,&#8221; she said. However, many questions remain, such as: Why did the ancient Egyptians get tattoos and what do they really mean? What do tattoos tell us about this ancient civilization? Hope the time will clear up these mysteries ”.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Killing cats in ancient Egypt would result in death penalty! The status of cats in ancient Egypt was unusually high and this surprised many people.</strong><br />
<span id="more-11783"></span> The ancient Egyptians were known to like cats. In the era when pharaohs ruled the Nile, this ancient civilization has no shortage of cat-inspired handicrafts. From larger-than-life statues to intricate jewels, these vivid works of art have been preserved for thousands of years and they still retain great quality to this day.</p>
<p> The ancient Egyptians turned countless cats into mummies, and even built the world&#8217;s first &#8220;pet cemetery&#8221;. These cemeteries have a history of nearly 2000 years, with most of the cats buried there wearing iron and bead necklaces. So why did cats have such a high status in ancient Egypt? The ancient Greek historian Herodotus has even recorded that the ancient Egyptians shaved their eyebrows to show respect when their cats died. <img fifu-featured="1" decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_01_101_38698378/3d52ef65ce2727797e36.jpg" width="625" height="445"> In 2018, the Smithsonian Asian Art Museum in Washington, DC, USA hosted an exhibition on the importance of cats in ancient Egypt. Many exhibitions have revealed to everyone the origin of this veneration &#8211; ancient Egyptians believed that gods and rulers should have cat-like qualities. Specifically, the ancient Egyptians believed that cats had some ideal personalities: on the one hand, they would love, nurture their children and be very loyal; on the other hand, they can also be very aggressive, independent, and assertive. To the ancient Egyptians, these traits made cats seem like a special animal and deserved attention, which may explain why they built so many statues involving cats. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_01_101_38698378/2eb6f981d8c3319d68d2.jpg" width="625" height="312"> Sphinx (sphinx) is a statue next to Kafra Pyramid, 73 meters long and looks like the head of a man and the body of a lion. This is possibly the most famous statue in ancient Egypt, although historians do not know why the ancient Egyptians made this giant statue. Similarly, Sakhmet, the goddess of war and powerful medicine in Egyptian mythology, is also depicted as a female lion or a lion-headed girl in a blood-red dress. She is also considered a protector, especially at dawn and dusk. Another goddess, Bastet, is often depicted as a lion or a cat. The ancient Egyptians believed that the cat was their divine relic. She used to be the goddess of war in Lower Egypt, due to her resemblance to the lion goddess Sekhmet in Upper Egypt, she gradually changed from the god of war to the guardian of the family, symbolizing warmth and family fun. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_01_101_38698378/964e4e796f3b8665df2a.jpg" width="625" height="1265"> The ancient Egyptians were particularly fond of cats, possibly because they were extremely capable of hunting, especially rats and snakes. Researchers at University College London say that ancient Egyptians even named their children after cats or gave them names meaning cats &#8211; for example naming girls &#8220;Mitt. &#8220;(means cat). It is not clear when cats began to be domesticated in Egypt, but archaeologists have uncovered some ancient graves of cats and kittens dating back to 3800 BC. However, many studies have shown that this obsession is not limited to love. There is archaeological evidence that the ancient Egyptians&#8217; passion for cats had a more cruel side. Between 700 BC and 300 AD, ancient Egypt probably formed a cat industry, first breeding large numbers of kittens, then killing them and making mummies for burial. with human mummies. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_01_101_38698378/58d883efa2ad4bf312bc.jpg" width="625" height="937"> In a study published in Scientific Reports in 2020, scientists performed micro-CT x-rays of animal mummies in ancient Egypt, including cat mummies. Through the scan, the researchers were able to understand the cat&#8217;s bone structure in detail and the materials used in its mummification process. When the researchers received the scans, the cat used for the mummification was in much smaller condition than expected. &#8220;It was a very young cat, but we didn&#8217;t realize that prior to scanning because most of the mummies (about 50%) were made of cloth,&#8221; study author at Swansea University, Wang UK, said Professor Richard Johnston. &#8220;When we saw it on the screen, we realized it was still very small when it died&#8221; &#8211; at less than 5 months old, the cat&#8217;s neck It was artificially broken. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_01_101_38698378/467e9c49bd0b54550d1a.jpg" width="625" height="375"> Mary-Ann Pools Wegner, associate professor of Egyptian archeology at the University of Toronto in Canada, said that many animal mummies were actually used as sacrifices to ancient Egyptian gods. This is a way to quench your anger or ask the gods for help in addition to a verbal prayer. But until now, we still don&#8217;t know why the ancient Egyptians wanted to buy cats for mummies during funerals.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Crater in Morocco used to be the filming location of many famous Hollywood movies.</strong><br />
<span id="more-10676"></span> The 1999 Hollywood movie &#8216;The Mummy&#8217; was set in Egypt, but was mostly shot in Morocco.</p>
<p> Gara Medouar reappeared in the 2001 sequel &#8216;The Mummy Return&#8217; in 2001. The eerie location then becomes the wicked lair of 007 Bond character Franz Oberhauser in the 2015 Specter film Oberhauser His cave is located inside a crater, but in reality, Gara Medouar is a crater. Gara Medouar, which in the local language means &#8220;round mountain&#8221;, is the remains of a large mass of limestone that has been eroded away. The current state is 50 meters higher than the desert, about 50 hectares in area. The central region collapsed, forming a valley. The partially broken circular mountain mass creates a central entrance. <img fifu-featured="1" decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_30_240_38687737/2f7fd4f1f5b31ced45a2.jpg" width="625" height="416"> <em> The bizarre crater attracts tourists in Morocco</em> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_30_240_38687737/e9df14513513dc4d8502.jpg" width="625" height="416"> The interior was quite flat and probably because the water had washed away all the material long ago. The unique irregular terrain of the Gara Medouar makes it a very impressive natural haven. Many caravans choose this area to hide when they encounter a sandstorm during their desert journey. Later, at a time Gara Medouar became a temporary detention area for slaves sold from Africa to Portugal. In the 11th century, it developed into a fortress capable of protecting the nearby commercial city of Sijilmasa, where gold coins were minted and trade routes from the south. The defensive wall, built around a third of the mountain&#8217;s natural circumference, is currently the remains of the fortress. But the most impressive is the wall straight through the large ravine blocking the only entrance to the mountain. The wall was about 8 meters high, some were 12 meters long and 80 meters long and 4 meters thick. The wall has an extremely solid structure, limestone blocks bound together by lime mortar. The fortress with high ground is well protected, providing extensive control, from the height of the Gara Medouar, one can observe the area with a radius of up to 50 km. After Gara Medouar appeared in the famous movie &#8216;The Mummy&#8217;, the site became more and more popular, attracting many tourists. However, tourism activities also disrupt archaeological investigations.</p>

<p> <em> Mummies are more than 3,000 years old. Photo: CBS</em> According to CBS, at sunset on April 3, the mummies will &#8216;depart&#8217; from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square in a grand parade. Each mummy was placed on a private car decorated elaborately, accompanied by convoys, music, lights and horses. The &#8220;Golden Parade of the Pharaohs&#8221; will travel along the Nile and then to Egypt&#8217;s first Islamic capital, Al-Fustat, in the old Cairo area, and then to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_02_23_38403096/1da1eeaec2ec2bb272fd.jpg" width="625" height="380"> <em> Photo: CBS</em> The group of mummies participating in the parade includes 18 kings, four queens of ancient Egypt&#8217;s 17th to 20th dynasties, about 3,100 to 3,500 years ago. Most mummified fish have been found in two archaeological sites at Luxor in the late 1800s. Over the course of more than 3,000 years, these kings and queens have been transferred from tomb to tomb, from capital to capital, from museum to museum. Many people hope that after the April 2 parade, they will be at peace. According to analysts, the upcoming parade is underway as a way to restore interest in Egyptian tourism in the midst of a global recovery in tourism. Many Egyptians, including the government of this country, want the event to go well. The entire parade will be broadcast online by the Ministry of Tourism of this country.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Egypt&#8217;s capital Cairo is preparing for a golden parade of ancient Pharaohs and queens on a rare move over the years.</strong><br />
<span id="more-9899"></span> The parade takes place to move ancient Egyptian royal mummies from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir to the recently inaugurated National Egyptian Civilization Museum.</p>
<p> It is expected that people will move about 22 mummies, including 18 kings and four half emperors, dating from the 17, 18, 19 and 20 dynasties. Ancient mummies will be paraded through the streets of Cairo in the scene of brilliant fireworks, sound and light shows, and honor cars, and the cavalry will also accompany the mummy. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_03_240_38416268/ecadfa32d7703e2e6761.jpg" width="625" height="416"> <em> Why did Egypt suddenly move dozens of ancient mummies?</em> <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_03_240_38416268/171d1a8237c0de9e87d1.jpg" width="625" height="416"> Among these displaced mummies are the famous mummy of King Sequenenre, who began the war of liberation against the Hyksos, Queen Hatshepsut, owner of the magnificent temple Deir Al-Bahari in Luxor and King. Ramesses II, the great pharaoh of the New Kingdom. Before departing, the mummies will be placed inside special containers filled with nitrogen, with storage conditions similar to those on display in museums. Each barrel is then loaded onto a private carriage decorated in ancient Egyptian style and carried in order from oldest to youngest. Upon arrival at the Egyptian Civilization Museum, the mummies will be recovered in the laboratory for nearly 15 days in preparation for installation inside the new galleries. At the Egyptian Civilization Museum, the mummies are placed in the Royal Mummy Room, decorated to resemble the valley of the kings, the area where their tombs were originally located. The &#8216;Golden Parade of the Pharaohs&#8217; is said to be a splendid festival along the Nile, celebrating Egypt&#8217;s rich heritage and attracting visitors back after a tough year. Archaeologist Zahi Hawass, former minister of Egyptian Antiquities, said: &#8220;This parade will make all Egyptians proud of the country&#8221;. <strong> Hoang Dung</strong> (translation)</p>

<span id="more-9562"></span> According to the <em> Reuters</em> , the mummies of 18 kings and four queens, mainly from the New Kingdom of Egypt, were transferred from the Egyptian Museum in the center of Tahrir Square (Cairo) to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization in Fustat.</p>
<p> For the procession of the mummies to the new &#8220;home&#8221;, the authorities closed the streets along the Nile. The convoy passed through the main roads in Cairo, and was greeted with 21 cannons when reaching the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. This museum also officially opened yesterday, April 3. Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi was present at the welcome ceremony. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_04_20_38422746/d629de04f3461a184357.jpg" width="625" height="351"> <em> The convoy carrying 22 Egyptian pharaohs went along the capital Cairo.

Source: RT</em> Archaeologist Zahi Hawass said each mummy was stored in a special casket filled with nitrogen to ensure no damage. These casks were placed on sturdy golden wagons to minimize shaking. &#8220;We chose the Civilization Museum because we wanted to display the mummies scientifically, not just for viewing as in the Egyptian Museum,&#8221; Mr. Hawass said. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_04_20_38422746/6b786b554617af49f606.jpg" width="625" height="378"> <em> Car carrying the mummy of King Ramesses V. Photo: Reuters</em> The mummies were discovered during two excavations in 1871 at Deir Al Bahari in Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. The oldest mummy is Seqenenre Tao, the last king of the 17th Dynasty, who reigned in the 16th century BC and is believed to have died. In addition, in the &#8220;parade&#8221; group there are mummies of Ramses II, Seti I and Ahmose-Nefertari. In recent weeks, Egypt has experienced a series of unfortunate incidents &#8211; including the congestion of the Suez Canal, a fatal train crash, a garment factory fire and a building collapse. apartment. These incidents &#8220;revive&#8221; the myth of the &#8220;curse of the pharaoh&#8221;. However, with 18 ancient kings and four queens finally settling down in the new and spacious home, perhaps no one will ever repeat the goosebumps again.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A Japanese-owned ship, operated from Taiwan, licensed in Panama, operated by a German company responsible for the machinery, transports cargo from mainland China to a port in the Netherlands. , then got trapped in a canal under Egyptian sovereignty. What do you see in the incident when the Ever Given super-ship stuck in the Suez Canal, the super-ship was in the top 1% of the world&#8217;s largest ships, 400 meters long, 59 meters wide, which if erect, taller than the Eiffel ?</strong><br />
<span id="more-589"></span> </p>
<p>Comedian Jimmy Kimmel relates it to an artery blockage that caused capitalism&#8217;s heart attack. An association could not be more relevant. Ever Given gets stuck, but that&#8217;s not just its own business. Nearly 400 other ships that wanted to cross Suez were also stuck, causing $ 9.6 billion in trade value to stall.</p>
<p>Obviously no ships were sunk and the cargo will arrive sooner or later but they are slow. Slowly, that&#8217;s how capitalism has changed man&#8217;s notion of time. If you asked someone who lived in the 17th century about a timetable, they would wonder what the hell you were asking about. Until the 18th century, people just invented a timetable to manage train times. But, it was not until the late 19th and early 20th centuries that industrialists had to optimize it and bring it into economics as an indicator of efficiency. That is, it was only when the capitalists appeared that the expression &#8220;time is money&#8221; was born.</p>
<p><img fifu-featured="1" decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_15_99_38531528/8f81961fbc5d55030c4c.jpg" width="625" height="416"></p>
<p><em> The image of the pitiful little bulldozer is rescuing the Ever Given super ship into a photo-processing phenomenon on social networks for many days. </em></p>
<p>Not only that. The Ever Given ship stuck for 6 days in the Suez Canal, Egypt, causing the country to lose $ 12-14 million per day. 6 days seems to be a very special time for Egyptians. In 1967, the Israeli army also landed in Egypt to wage a six-day war over the Arab coalition and as a result Israel then took control of the Gaza Strip, east of Jerusale, the Sinai peninsula, the west bank and Golan Heights.</p>
<p>In retaliation, Egypt closed the Suez Canal and reopened it in 1975. That coincidence is a sign that, if we look closely, the story of the incident in Suez might suggest more.</p>
<p>And, that&#8217;s right. Since its inception, Suez has always been a mirror to the world, even if we want to, we can see very clearly the many stages of human history over the past 150 years, only through the lens of Suez: from the owner. colonialism in Africa, to the Cold War and then globalization.</p>
<p>In the mid-19th century, a French diplomat proposed to invest in Egypt building a canal connecting the Mediterranean with the Red Sea, and the creation of that artery was also the beginning of a dark chapter of Africa, when the continent began to be torn apart by Europe. Just before Suez&#8217;s inauguration, Khedive (Viceroy) of Egypt defaulted and was forced to sell part of the ownership of the Suez Canal to England &#8211; so a colonial dispute broke out between England and France, culminating is the Fashoda event, where the British won Egypt and the French kept only Morocco. So, from the outset, that canal has been a metaphor for a change in power structure.</p>
<p>However, the troubled political situation in Egypt led the British press to coined the term &#8220;Egyptian question&#8221; as a way of expressing doubt and fear that the occupation of the Suez Canal would pose a threat. Castle. Little is said about, that the formation of the Suez Canal led to the creation of a gothic literary movement about the supernatural forces of the rising ancient Egyptian civilization to destroy the enemy. Even Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of the immortal series of Sherlock Holmes, could not stand out from the trend and he has a short story &#8220;Lot No.249&#8221; revolving around an Egyptologist who brings back so many antiques. You should get revenge by the zombies.</p>
<p>And, the story of these ancient curses &#8220;can be read as a symbol of both a desire for power to fully hold the Suez Canal and the fear of losing it,&#8221; as scholar Ailise Bulfin in Trinity College wrote in an essay.</p>
<p>It was the middle of the 19th century. Also until the middle of the 20th century, this time everything changed after 2 world wars. Colonialism is coming to the conclusion of many colonial countries&#8217; struggle for national liberation and a newly formed context: the Cold War. The historic arena now belonged to the Soviet and American powers, a battle that Hopkins University&#8217;s foreign relations professor Michael Mandelbaum likened to a sumo fight, in which two fat brothers worshiped. and stomped his feet but barely actually touched each other. With unmatched value, the Suez Canal is of course indispensable for a role on this sumo ring.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_04_15_99_38531528/3a9d25030f41e61fbf50.jpg" width="625" height="416"></p>
<p><em>The British Air Force prepared to attack Egypt during the Suez Crisis of 1956. </em></p>
<p>On October 29, 1956, the British &#8211; French &#8211; Israeli coalition attacked Egypt after its decision to nationalize the Suez Canal, opening the &#8220;Suez Crisis&#8221;. And, like all events in the world at the time, it was actually still a matter between the US and the Soviet Union, though they might not &#8220;show up&#8221; directly. Why does the Egyptian government want to nationalize Suez? It is in response to the US unwillingness to fund the construction of the Aswan Dam on the Nile. And who is willing to lend Egypt $ 1.12 billion to implement this project? Who else but the Soviet Union.</p>
<p>What was even more interesting, however, was that the United States did not want to attack Egypt. Therefore, President Eisenhower&#8217;s government has pressured allied countries to leave, with Britain alone, Eisenhower threatened to sell bonds in pounds, which would cause immeasurable damage. for UK finance. Frightened, Britain withdrew its troops and suffered a dull face. Historians today conclude that the Suez Crisis &#8220;marked the end of the UK&#8217;s role as one of the great powers in the world&#8221; and that the demise of old empires like Britain or France only caused The dichotomy between the US and the Soviet Union became more solid.</p>
<p>Then after a few decades, when the walls fell, the Cold War was finally in the past. What defeated it, replaced it, was globalization, according to author Thomas L. Friedman in &#8220;The Lexus and the Olive Fishing&#8221;. Friedman&#8217;s famous book was first published in 1999 but up to now, it is still accurate. We are still living in the era of globalization, globalization becomes more and more apparent in every corner of our lives.</p>
<p>And, just in time when the new power structure is going into smooth operation, the Ever Given ship&#8217;s trauma on the Suez Canal reveals to us the fragility of the global supply chain. In his book, Friedman makes a statement: “The greatest threats to globalization originate in itself. This system has the potential to destroy itself ”. Among the &#8220;self-destructive potentials&#8221; mentioned by Friedman, one comes from &#8220;too tight connection&#8221;.</p>
<p>Only one ship, but accounts for more than 13% of all cargo that goes through the sea. Just one ship, can cause total damage of about 400 million USD per hour and 10 billion USD per day. And, no country can say this incident has no effect on us, just that the effect will come soon or a little later. It was an incident no one ever thought could happen, but it still happens. And, the whole world could suffer just because of the negligence of a handful of people. The weakness of globalization lies in that. And this time, will the Suez Canal herald a structural change in the world? Some experts say that, most likely, the Suez incident will promote the transport of knowledge and technology, instead of the physical cargo. Let&#8217;s wait and see.</p>
<p>But, also does not rule out this possibility, a possibility that has been mixed with the Egyptians in recent days. The number is that before Ever Given was trapped, Egypt was moving 22 mummies to the new museum and because of the &#8220;cemetery of the tombs&#8221;, the mummies of the Pharaohs were cradling a curse that caused bad luck to the world. It sounds nonsense, but it shouldn&#8217;t be taken literally. In fact, the curse of the Pharaohs is the &#8220;olive tree&#8221; described by Friedman: it is a symbol of the past, of identity, of tradition, which is grappling with the &#8220;lexus&#8221; &#8211; that is development, integration, industrialization, which is represented by the modern Ever Given supership.</p>
<p>The only thing we can be sure of is that globalization has some small problems, but if not fixed in time, it can have a big impact. Anyway, in ancient times terrible changes in history began with the release of screws.</p>
