Me too, Egyptian lady, me too
Based on an artwork from a funerary scroll, the Papyrus of Nakht (14th century BCE) originating from Thebes, Egypt (18th Dynasty, New Kingdom)
The papyrus is currently in the British Museum but not in display due to light sensitivity
For ancient Egyptians, cockroaches were considered a creature of darkness and manifestation of decay, since they eat the fabric and overall, the mummies they threatened the deceased's chances of eternal resurrection so they had to be destroyed 😌the only sensible option imo.
