Scientists recently made an interesting discovery in Egypt, saying that the preserved remains belonged to a prominent priest of Thoth, the deity revered by Ancient Egyptians for its association with knowledge and enchantment.
The mummy has been traced back to the twenty sixth dynasty of Ancient Egypt, which was the final native dynasty to govern until five hundred and twenty five BC.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most important thing to learn in history?
This question is not easy to answer. There are three things to keep in mind when learning. The first is to realize that knowledge can be power. Second, knowledge is cumulative. Third, it is important to recognize how rapidly knowledge changes.
Knowledge is power. It allows us to make better decisions, and improve our lives. We wouldn't have any problems making decisions if we had perfect information. We would always do what we want without worrying about if it was right or wrong.
Knowledge is not only power but also cumulative. This means that once we've learned something, we continue to add more knowledge to our brains. We become more and more intelligent as time goes by. Knowledge accumulates.
Now, let's look at the third point. Knowledge is not static. Knowledge is always changing. Every day scientists discover new facts, theories, ways of thinking. Discoveries are made all the time.
Technology is a key component of our culture. It allows us to instantly access information. It is possible to store large amounts of data digitally and share it with millions of people around the world.
Globalization has transformed the way we see technology and knowledge. Globalization refers simply to the process by which ideas or products spread beyond borders. Because of globalization, knowledge is now accessible everywhere.
Internet access allows anyone to find information from any part of the world. Anybody can access the internet to read, watch movies, listen and play music, as well as surf the net. All these activities require knowledge.
While knowledge is becoming increasingly accessible, it is also becoming more specialized. If you search online for advice on health, finance or business, you will find hundreds of thousands of sites offering information about topics such as cooking, travel, sport, or business. These websites provide information on just about every topic.
You'll find only a few sites that offer automotive-related services or products if your goal is to purchase a car online. There are many sites that cover every topic, but you will only find a few websites that focus on cars.
Experts in specific fields are able to create and share valuable knowledge. Experts often have a deep understanding of a particular field. Experts have the ability to create high-quality content specifically for their audience.
This is great news for consumers as they no longer have to search through a lot of useless information. Instead, they can focus on a small number of sites with lots of useful content.
Experts can also benefit from specialization as they are able to build strong businesses around what they know. When someone buys a book, he expects the author to know his subject well enough to write a clear and concise explanation of the material. He wants to feel confident that the author is able to convey his message.
Experts that aren't specialists risk losing potential clients who expect them to be experts.
Specialization isn't limited to just one area. Today, most of us are specialists in many different areas. One might be an accountant, lawyer, doctor, teacher, or other specialist. However, we are likely to be parents, spouses, friends and fans.
Experts argue that specialization is so common that it's impossible for one person to be an expert in all aspects of the same thing.
So, how do you become a specialist in multiple areas? The answer is easy: practice. To learn anything, you have to practice. You can make great progress if you continue to work until people recognize you.
Today, entire industries are dedicated to helping others achieve their goals. You can learn how to quickly acquire knowledge through workshops, seminars, conferences and schools.
What lessons can history teach us?
These are the three most important lessons that history has taught us. First, to truly change the world, one must take responsibility for it. It is important to make sure that people are prepared for change when you try to improve their lives. Third, you can't change the past without changing the future.
The first lesson we can learn is that there are only two ways to transform the world. One is fighting for it, the other is creating it. If you fight for it you lose sight on why you started to fight.
Although you cannot control the reactions of people to your ideas, you can control how they are presented. If you want to persuade someone, you'll eventually fail. If you try to convince someone to do something, you will fail.
Great movements were born out of an idea that was realized and then taken action. You can create change or respond to it. The best way to do this is to be clear and honest about your goals, where you are coming from, and to be bold enough to take the initiative to go places no one has before.
The second lesson is that each of us has a choice. We can either allow our lives to unfold, or choose to create them. This means that it is up to us to decide how we want our lives to be. Is it better to decide what kind of life we want or wait for someone else? Do we want to control our destiny?
I'd argue that we're living in a golden age right now. There is more opportunity than ever, which makes it exciting. It's exciting that people feel empowered and able to create their futures.
This creates a problem. It is essential to determine what you want, and how you can get it.
For example, let's say you want to buy a house. Or you could just sit back and wait for someone to give you a gift card to Home Depot. You could also ask yourself "What would you love to do?" Find a job that will allow you to do it. Then, you can apply for financing.
Now let's imagine you wanted to travel around the world. The question you might be asking yourself is "Where do I want go?" You'd then begin saving money, researching different countries online and speaking with friends. The final step is to book a flight.
Let's suppose you don't know what you want. In this case, you'd probably end-up doing one of the things. By asking yourself such questions, you increase the likelihood of getting what your heart desires. Although it may sound silly, it is effective.
And the third lesson is that no matter what happens next, you can always improve the future. This is because it's simple. Our choices shape who we are and who we become.
So the trick is to use history as a guide, to learn from others' mistakes and successes, and keep improving until you succeed.
If you don’t believe you can offer anything, you’re already behind. You must believe in yourself and that you are more than you believed.
If you don't know where to begin, start with what you know. Start small and build from there. Consider what you have learned over the course of your life. What have you failed at? What have you succeeded at? How did you overcome obstacles?
You are the only person who can limit what you can do. No matter what anyone says, you can do anything you put your mind to.
Benjamin Franklin said, "Nothing will be successful unless you do."
Do we have to learn history in order to avoid making the same mistakes as before?
History repeats itself because we keep making the same mistakes again and again. We make mistakes and fail to learn. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle for mediocrity.
History repeats itself because we believe the same old stories. Our culture has conditioned us to believe there is an immutable law and a fixed truth. That we cannot do anything to affect them.
This conditioning prevents us from thinking critically. To question authority. From challenging assumptions. And when we don't question, we don't grow. We stagnate if we don’t move forward. Stamina is when we continue to make the same mistakes.
History doesn't repeat itself, because we continue to make the same mistakes. History repeats because we refuse lessons from our mistakes and continue making them over and again.
Change your perception of the world and yourself to stop the cycle. Nothing is fixed. All things are in constant flux.
To break the cycle, embrace uncertainty. To accept that things could go wrong. Accept that failure is possible. To accept that failure is a possibility.
Accept that you may not reach your goals. Accept that you may not achieve your goals. However, it is important to keep working towards improving.
Holding on to the past will keep you stuck. If you believe there are only certain truths, it will be impossible to move forward.
Freedom is only possible if you are willing to let go. If you want to progress, you have to give up control.
What are three lessons you can learn about history?
There are numerous examples throughout history that demonstrate how we can learn and improve from our mistakes. We can apply them to today's business challenges and turn them into opportunities for growth.
The past has taught us that there is always a better way. There is always someone out there who thinks outside the box and takes risks that make them stand apart.
History shows us that often, it's the underdogs and not the winners who win. If you ever feel lost, overwhelmed or stuck, remember the times when the underdog prevailed.
Look back on the past and learn from it. Learn from others' successes and failures.
These lessons will help you increase your success rate.

How To
How did propaganda become marketing success?
In 1879, Max Weber, a German sociologist and German sociologist, first coined the term "propaganda". The Greek word "praopagos", which means "to talk well," was the source of the phrase. The word came from the Latin verb "propere," meaning "nearby" or "at hand," and the noun "agogos," meaning "speech or discourse." It's a "systematic attempt to influence attitudes and behavior."
In his book "Propaganda," published in 1928, British journalist George Orwell wrote: "To understand the true nature of propaganda, we must realize that it is not the intention to make people believe anything; it is only the intention to change their beliefs...It is intended to make them accept one thing rather than another."
Edward Bernays (1891 – 95), who was Sigmund's nephew, and psychoanalyst. He became famous when he created the term "public relations" (1922). He stated that the conscious and intelligent manipulations of the organized opinions and habits of the masses was an essential element of a democratic society. He created the public relations firm Bernays & Company in 1927. He worked there until 1955.
Bernays' "engineering consent" technique was developed in the 1920s and 1950s. It involves influencing public opinion by using publicity campaigns and advertising. His methods were adopted later by mass media companies like Newsweek, CBS News, NBC News and Time Magazine. After World War II, Bernays began working closely with corporations and government agencies to influence public opinion. Johnson & Johnson were among his clients.
His most notable client was the tobacco industry. Philip Morris was his most notable client. He developed a campaign against tobacco smoking in 1939. This campaign was recommended by the Surgeon general. The Cigarette Advertising Act, which banned any advertisement for cigarettes in print media (magazines, newspapers, television) was passed by the Senate in 1965.
He also gave advice on how to deal during the Great Depression with the growing labor movement. Bernays advised that the president declare "war on Hunger" and use federal government's power in order to ensure adequate food. This strategy made the government look like a benevolent father figure and helped the president win re-election in 1936.
As the popularity of radio increased, Bernays started promoting the idea of "radio listening" to increase sales of radios. He introduced the concepts "branding" (and "advertising") in the 1930s. He believed that customers could be motivated by appealing to their emotional side, and making them feel unique. For example, he promoted the slogan "Have you got what it takes?" He encouraged women to buy war bonds in 1933.
In 1944, he established the political action committee "Young People for Freedom". The group's goal was to encourage Americans aged 18-30 to vote Republican. Bernays' efforts proved successful when Dwight Eisenhower won the presidential election in 1952.
Bernays convinced CIA in 1953 to stage a coup d'etat in Iran. Shah Reza Pahlevi would replace Mohammad Mosaddegh. This was to stop Mosaddegh acquiring Iranian oilfields. After the coup, Bernays wrote articles praising the new regime as a "moderate," "progressive," and "modernized" one.
Bernays has received numerous other awards throughout his professional career.
