In ancient Egypt, aristocratic women exchanged a secret of skin care to have the beauty of their goddess. It was not until the end of the 20th century that this secret was deciphered by archaeologists in France.

While studying the remains of noble Egyptians, archaeologists discovered the composition of pure gold.

This proves that the ancient Egyptians sewed tiny gold threads into the bottom of the skin. This not only keeps the skin young, elastic, removes wrinkles but also gives the skin a slightly sparkling white skin, like it is shining.

2. High and worship cats

Ancient Egyptians loved all animals but for them cats were the most sacred animals that played an important role in spiritual life for a long time.

The reason is that the people of Egypt at that time worshiped the goddess Bastet, a god of blessing and protection for human beings, whose god shaped the cat.

For the ancient Egyptians, the cat's bright eyes in the night were like moonlight in the dark night. If there is a fire in the house, the cat will be the first priority to be saved.

Family members will mourn and show grief when the sacred animal dies by shaving its eyebrows.

If someone accidentally or intentionally kills a cat, he will also face the anger of the crowds of Egyptians and suffer punishment by being thrown into a pit full of poisonous snakes.

When a cat dies, the ancient Egyptians will mummify and bury it in a cat cemetery with mummies of mice. A bowl of milk is also buried with the body of the cat so that it will not starve to the afterlife.

80,000 mummies of cats in a large grave were discovered by a farmer in 1888.
