Hamunaptra 2

♥ Hello everybody
One of my favorites is the Egyptian cultures and this time I will quote to tell of Hamunaptra

Hamunaptra was an Ancient Egyptian city hidden deep in the desert some distance from Thebes and is the primary setting for the story. Unlike many of the real places mentioned in the movie, this Hamunaptra is purely fictional. Hamunaptra is depicted as containing two books central to the film's plot. One is the golden Book of Amun-Ra, "The Book of the Living", hidden beneath the statue of Horus. "It contains within it all the secret incantations of the Old Kingdom." The other is the black Book of the Dead, hidden beneath the statue of Anubis. The Book of the Living can take life away while the Book of the Dead can give it back. It is the latter that Imhotep, high priest of King Seti I, uses in his attempt to resurrect his true love Anck-su-namun meaning Lifes mystery or hidden one.

More myths
Hamunaptra is said is really a mirage in the desert and only revealed to travelers at sunrise. This tip led to the myth that the entire cemetery was "rigged to sink into the sand at the command of Pharaoh," causing the city to disappear under the desert, putting the treasure permanently out of reach.
Over time, Hamunaptra became a lost city, the subject of legends. As a result, in the 1920s, the decade in which most of the action of the film takes place, its existence is doubted by serious scholars.

The real Hamunaptra (Dead Man City) was found in India in the 1850s when British engineers trying to build a railroad, looted the area of the bricks. In the 1920s, archaeologists began digging in earnest. They found at the site of a lost civilization that occupies an area greater than that of Pakistan. However, there is no evidence to prove any hypothesis of why the civilization could be extinct in the city of the dead.
