Written in our mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is the story of our great ancestors – from their origins in Africa to their wondrous journeys around the world.
Today the animal mummies are one of the most popular exhibits in the whole treasure-filled museum. Visitors of all ages, Egyptians and foreigners, press in shoulder to shoulder to get a look. Behind glass panels lie cats wrapped in strips of linen that form diamonds, stripes, squares, and crisscrosses.
Can you guess what did happened? Animals moved out of the water onto the land. The first creatures that crawled out onto the swampy shore were not yet entirely of land animals. They were amphibians which is means that they had to spend some of their life in the water.
They had long slim bodies and well-developed tails. They had lungs with which to breathe air and legs that could support them on solid ground. They were also too good swimmers and have spent a great deal of their time in the water, eating small fish.
Now, whenever the droughts were very severe and some of the ponds and rivers dried up completely, many the fish died off. But the amphibians stayed alive because they could use their legs to walk to another spot where there was some water on left.
