ANCIENT EGYPTIAN VIAGRA & ITS CONSEQUENCES!!

The Temple of Kom Ombo had some rather explicit hieroglyphs & relief's about fertility & birthing! One Hieroglyph gave a recipe for the ancient Egyptian form of viagra, it is....wait for it....consuming quantities of watercress & lettuce! Apparently there was an egyptian saying that if women knew what was in the watercress they would be growing it under the bed!!!! Another hieroglyph showed the best way to give birth & the best way to breast feed! Apparently, as a method of confirming a pregnancy & foretelling the sex of a child, women would take a barley seed & a wheat seed. She would plant them both in the ground & urinate on them each day. If they started to grow, she was pregnant, if they didn't....she was not! If the barley came up first then she was pregnant with a girl, but if the wheat came up first, it was a boy. If they both came up at the same time...twins! In smaller villages some women still practice this method.

  1. Life in ancient Egypt was an interesting time. It was a vivid society that mastered ship structure, built the pyramids and large monuments. The tombs of ancient Egyptians show the exceptional care in which they readied themselves for life after death. egyptian cartidges
