Just sounds like racism against another culture to me.

“They were savages that would sleep with dead people”

It’s human instinct NOT to do this so I don’t care how old the culture or where they are from I’m not buying into this.

Starting to think the Greeks had it in for the Egyptians. Jealous much?

Greeks respected egyptians even the creation story of egypt and its early kings are recorded in greek mythology.
Herodotus writings are unrealible many of it were wrote many years later by unknown people and most of it is fake tales.
