Archaeologists at one time were surprised to find in Egypt, among the burials of Mesoamerican tribes, in some other places of our planet, pots with the remains of people - mostly children.
For a long time, there was a theory that the poor people who could not afford a normal coffin, not to mention expensive sarcophagi and individual tombs, buried their relatives in this way. And the fact that mostly children's remains were found in the pots was also logically very simple to explain: an adult needed a too large ceramic vessel, so it was easier to bury an adult deceased, say, in a leather bag.
However, there were also adult remains in pots, moreover, some pots were skillfully painted, for example, various ritual dances were depicted on them. Finally, the hieroglyphs on such ceramic “coffins” denoted words and expressions that were not entirely clear to us, such as “the secret of birth”, “egg”, which did not fit well with the theory of poverty of those who used sarcophagus pots for babies.
Recently, Antiquit magazine published the findings of scientists who revised the well-established theory of potted burials. Modern researchers are sure that the ancients associated pots with the womb (egg), and burial in such a vessel symbolized reincarnation - the transition to a new life. Some of the scientists go even further, and therefore assume that it is impossible to exclude the artificial introduction of the mind to earthlings by more perfect creatures. In this case, the pot (egg) could be the prototype of a vessel in which similar genetic experiments were carried out, which led to a sharp, still inexplicable from a scientific point of view, a leap in human evolution.
