npub14w37fjdpkezfacsz3q8r97yqs9e0cquntlfkamgdhewnpaud4x9qtu9vjx (npub14w3…9vjx) idk, the chambers and especially the tunnels they've recently found are very weird. If not a tomb, then some sort of religious monument?
I can only take so much reading about Egypt because the people in the comments are such dicks. Some very not-nice people are into Egyptology, and I don't think Zawi Hawass' arrogance helped the matter any. I'm still interested though; I just don't want to talk to any of those people.
When Zawi Hawass had his short-lived reality show, he was complaining about humidity problems ruining the Great Pyramid. I sent him a question through the show page. I asked him, why didn't they drag big bags of silicone, the type that you find in handbags and bottles of vitamins that say "do not eat", to the top of the pyramid, to absorb the excess moisture.
Like a year passed, no answer, and then I got a response! A single line, "That's the dumbest idea I ever heard." No explanation for why it wouldn't work. I don't think it was Zawi Hawass that actually answered, probably some pissed-off intern that Hawass treated like shit, but that's the kind of people that are into Egyptology. They had no idea if I was an adult or a 9 year old kid when they did that, and it could have crushed some poor kid's dreams. So tread lightly when teaching kids about Egyptology, try to steer them away from comments or commenting themselves. But don't give up on it either, because it's super interesting, especially to kids.
