Sounds good, except I'm out of jelly. (I mean, there IS jelly, but it's grape, and I don't really do grape jelly.)

If you could watch a moment in time, you cannot be seen or change the timeline, what moment would you want to witness?

I'm watching a mummy documentary, lol is where the question came from. But I'd like to see the exact moment grunt noises became words, or watch the first person to make bronze for the very first time.

@xvz: These mummies are long before Egypt started doing it, from a different culture. But apparently it's possible that this culture also mummified unborn babies.

This is exactly

They were basically trying to cheat death, or something like that. It made the dead seem almost alive to them. There's also a possibility that they ate parts of the mummies they took out. Including baby mummies. As way of absorbing that person's spirit. A lot of this is conjecture with very little concrete evidence.

They do in fact grieve too.

Cultures are wild and how things change over the course of time. Fascinating.

This is exactly

In the case of Egyptians it is believed that they first saw natural mummies, and thought that they looked almost alive. Which would spawn into them perfecting it and doing it on purpose.
