Mildly Interesting @lemmy.world tictac2 @lemmy.world 2y ago Hieroglyphic Nest in the Temple of Edfu, Egypt
Unbelievably, the hieroglyph next to the bird is a bee. It's like whoever designed it had never seen a bee, but had them described by someone who knew someone whose cousin was stung by a bee that one time. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bee_(hieroglyph)
I like how the hole is perfectly bird shaped
