Ancient Egypt Servants #ancientcivilization #history

Did you know that in Ancient Egypt, some royal servants were actually covered in honey to serve a very unusual purpose? These unfortunate individuals were tasked with attracting flies away from the Pharaoh, acting as human bug repellents. Since the Pharaoh was considered a living god and had to be kept perfectly clean and comfortable, even a single fly buzzing around him was seen as unacceptable. So instead, the flies would swarm to the sweet, sticky honey-coated servants standing nearby. This bizarre yet real practice shows just how far people went to protect and please their rulers—even at the cost of becoming a walking fly trap!
