In this article by a PROFESSOR we are going to reveal to you this study that has confirmed that the ancient Egyptians lived less than 30 years.

Thus, the life expectancy of the Egyptians did not exceed 30 years. As explained by Professor Miguel Botella, although the cultural level in ancient Egypt was very high, the analysis anthropological evidence of human remains reveals that the population, and also the rulers, the highest social class, lived on very poor health conditions and on the edge of survival.

Apparently, after the analysis of more than 200 mummies Gastrointestinal problems were found to be decisive for such a short life expectancy. The water of the Nile was polluted and easily caused infections.

Apparently, from the explored tombs, it has been possible to know that the Egyptians knew Africa quite well and that they got to know the pygmies, inhabitants of the center of the continent.
