Archaeologists found a pit full of giant dismembered hands near an ancient Egyptian king's palace, hinting that warriors may have offered the king the hands of their defeated enemies as trophies. Another cool discovery is a 52-foot-long papyrus scroll from the Book of the Dead, found in a coffin near the Step Pyramid of Djoser. In Cairo, two massive statues from around 1150 BC were unearthed, believed to be of Ramses II and his grandson, Seti II, with the latter having a perfectly symmetrical face, which is super impressive for the time. They also discovered hundreds of baboon mummies, showing how much ancient Egyptians revered these animals and imported them from far-off lands.
