Crazy Fact About Ancient Egypt: They Had a Magic Pillow #shorts
Crazy Fact About Ancient Egypt: They Had a Magic Pillow #shorts
#crazy #history #facts #ancientegyptian #ancientegypt
In ancient Egypt, there was a magical pillow that was believed to have the power to induce prophetic dreams. This pillow was known as the "dream pillow" or the "headrest of dreams."
The dream pillow was typically made of wood, stone, or clay. It was often carved with images of gods and goddesses, or with symbols of good luck and prosperity.
To use the dream pillow, a person would simply place it under their head before going to sleep. They would then ask a specific question or make a specific request to the gods. In the morning, the person would recall their dream and interpret it for guidance.
The dream pillow was used by both common people and royalty alike. It was especially popular among priests and priestesses, who used it to communicate with the gods and to receive guidance on important matters.
There are many stories about the power of the dream pillow. One story tells of a king who was having trouble making a decision about whether or not to go to war. He used the dream pillow to ask the gods for guidance. In his dream, he saw himself victorious in the war. He took this as a sign that he should go to war, and he was ultimately victorious.
Another story tells of a priestess who was trying to heal a sick woman. She used the dream pillow to ask the gods for help. In her dream, she was given a recipe for a potion that would heal the woman. She made the potion and gave it to the woman, who was completely cured.
The dream pillow is a fascinating and mysterious artifact from ancient Egypt. It is a reminder of the importance that the ancient Egyptians placed on dreams and on communication with the gods.

Crazy Fact About Ancient Greece: They Used Stones For Toilet Paper #shorts
Crazy Fact About Ancient Greece: They Used Stones For Toilet Paper #shorts
#history #facts #ancientgreece #greeks
Imagine going to the bathroom and instead of using toilet paper, you had to use a rock. That's what the ancient Greeks did!
It may sound crazy, but it's true. The ancient Greeks didn't have toilet paper, so they used a variety of other things to clean themselves after going to the bathroom. One of the most common things they used was stones.
There are a few different theories about why the ancient Greeks used stones for toilet paper. One theory is that they simply didn't have any other options. Toilet paper wasn't invented until the 14th century, so the ancient Greeks had to get creative.
Another theory is that the ancient Greeks believed that stones were more hygienic than other options. They thought that stones were better at removing any waste from their bodies.
Whatever the reason, it's clear that the ancient Greeks had a very different approach to bathroom hygiene than we do today.

The Roman Emperor Who Made Himself a God #shorts
The Roman Emperor Who Made Himself a God #shorts
#history #facts #rome #romanempire #caligula
Emperor Caligula was one of the most notorious and eccentric emperors in Roman history. He was known for his cruelty, his lavish spending, and his bizarre behavior. But perhaps the most megalomaniacal thing about Caligula was that he declared himself a god.
Caligula demanded to be worshipped by his subjects, and he built temples to himself all over the Roman Empire. He also had statues of himself erected in public places, and he required people to bow down to him as they passed by.
Caligula's declaration of godhood was met with outrage by the Roman people. They saw it as a sign of his madness and his disregard for Roman tradition. Caligula's own advisors were also concerned about his behavior, and they feared that he was leading the empire to ruin.
In 41 AD, Caligula was assassinated by a group of his own guards. His assassination was a relief to the Roman people, and it marked the end of one of the most bizarre and turbulent reigns in Roman history.

Susanoo:
Susanoo was the storm god and one of the most powerful deities in Japanese mythology. He was also a bit of a jerk.
One day, Susanoo got into a fight with his sister, the sun goddess Amaterasu. He was so angry that he destroyed her rice fields and threw a dead horse into her temple. Amaterasu was so disgusted that she hid in a cave, plunging the world into darkness.
Izanagi and Izanami:
Izanagi and Izanami were the first gods and goddesses of Japanese mythology. They were tasked with creating the world, which they did by standing on a floating bridge and stirring the ocean with a spear. The droplets of water that fell from the spear formed the islands of Japan.
One day, Izanami died while giving birth to the fire god Kagutsuchi. Izanagi was so grief-stricken that he beheaded Kagutsuchi. The blood from Kagutsuchi's body created many new gods and goddesses, but it also burned Izanami's body beyond repair.
