BOARD GAMES IN ANCIENT EGYPT



Ancient Egyptians were a very intelligent nation.They used to make games that test intelligence.A lot of board games where found in tombs of kings and nobles.Archaeologists spent years to understand how these games where played but they failed Because these games where so difficult that it is very tough to understand it through an image.The most popular board game in ancient Egypt was called senet.drawings in walls of royal tombs explained how senet was played.In king tut`s tomb there were a lot of images showing kings and princes playing senet.senet is so similar in shape to chess but it is completely different in the way it is played which is still a mystery.Now there are a lot of maths scientists trying to find how this game was played but I think it is a very difficult challenge to know something about Ancient Egyptians that they didn't want to tell their descendants.All what can we do is to raise our hats to these exceptional people who will still a point of controversy throughout history

Seven world wonders


When the image talk about itself one become unable to say anything.The image you see is not only the seven wonders of the world but it is the proud of every human being.These wonders even after disappearance of some of them they will be alive in the memory of everyone adoring integrity.They are simply the symbol of greatness in our planet.About me i adore all of the wonders of ancient world but just one of them has a special rank in my heart.
Its the great pyramid of Giza .Can any one believe that this pyramid is seven thousand years old but its really so.Up tell now scientists and archaeologists can not know the secret of building this pyramid.So this pyramid must take the rank one in world wonders in any time even after they vanish.leave me a comment to tell me what is the world wonder you love most?
