Did you know that during the Victorian era, people were so fascinated with Egyptology that they held "mummy unwrapping" parties? Guests would gather to watch as a mummy was unwrapped to reveal the preserved remains beneath the layers of linen. These events were both scientific demonstrations and social spectacles, reflecting the era's curious blend of science, superstition, and entertainment. Fascination with ancient cultures has always been a part of human history, but the Victorians took it to a whole new level! ๐Ÿบโœจ
