The ancient Egyptians believed strongly in life after death. They also believed that a person would 
need his body after his life. Therefore, they carefully preserved the body by treating it with spices, 
oils and by wrapping it in cloths. The wrapped body was then placed in a tomb. A body treated in 
this way is called a m um m y. Egyptian kings and nobles wanted to be certain that their mummies 
would be kept in safe places forever. So they built pyramids for themselves and their families.

buried about eighty kings in pyramid-shaped stone tombs. These pyramids have become famous 
as one of “ the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World”. One of the most amazing things about these 
pyramids is that they were constructed without using wheels or heavy equipment to move or

Humans have always been fascinated by owls. Prehistoric people painted pictures o f owls in 
caves. The ancient Romans thought that owls were signs of death and bad luck. But in ancient 
Greece, owls were connected with the idea of wisdom and good luck. The connection with 
wisdom still exists in English.
The expression “ a w ise ow l” is a clever person who knows a lot. Owls have very good hearing 
and eyesight. They can see very well during the day and at night. They are very good hunters. They 
are more successful hunters than hawks. But owls are much less intelligent than hawks. They are 
even less intelligent than pigeons. Hawks can be trained, which means that they can learn things.
For example, they learn to hunt with their human trainer. They will come and land on the 
trainer’s arm when the trainer calls. But owls can’t learn to do any of these things. They are 
impossible to be trained. Owls look wise animals, but in reality they are not wise at all.
