Debate: Honey Never Spoils, Ancient Egyptian Tombs Harbor Over 3,000 Years-Old Jars Filled with the Sweet Treat in 2000 words refers to a question about the surprisingly long shelf life of honey, which has been discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs believed to be over 3,000 years old. Why did the Egyptians store honey in crypts and why did it not spoil? What could these factors have to do with how well preserved thousands of jars of honey were that scientists found when examining Egypt’s Spider Embalmers Tomb, which is about 134 million years older than coeval sites without honey finds? The answer might be connected to how much water the ancient Egyptians used for embalming and funeral rites in general and how much water evaporated within the mummies’ preserved remains. This process could have kept the moisture level low enough that the honey couldn’t decompose even three millennia later, when researchers placed containers filled with jars of preserved honey deep underground in an attempt to recreate ancient Egyptian tomb conditions. Curious fact about bees adds interesting scientific details.
