Sacred Animal in Ancient Egypt
This is Bertie, and I’m here with some more from Herodotus, the father of history who lived 2,500 years ago. Herodotus was a Greek who liked to travel. He went around much of the Persian Empire, including Egypt, and wrote down what he saw. A fair bit of what we know about life in Ancient Egypt comes to us from Herodotus.
