Here are some fun things that you might not know about Ancient Egypt:
- Cleopatra was not Egyptian, she was Greek
- Egyptians had pets including cats, hawks, ibises, dogs, lions and baboons
- Egyptians would also mummify their pets and other beloved animals when the animal or owner died
- One of the Pharaohs hated flies a lot, so he had his slaves be covered in honey so the flies would be attracted to them, not the Pharaoh
