 pork is forbidden by the ancient Egyptians

Pigs in ancient Egypt had two types (wild pigs / domesticated pigs) and were characterized in the ancient Egyptian language (Riri) and are known in Egypt since the Neolithic period

500 years before the birth of Christ, a famous Greek historian was on a visit to Egypt .. The historian is Herodotus, who they call the father of history .. Herodotus wrote a book on his visit to Egypt, in which he mentioned everything about the Egyptians in an interesting and attractive manner ..

When Herodotus spoke about the food of the Egyptians, he said that the Egyptians do not eat pork because it is an unclean animal that represents evil .. only the Egyptians raised him to make him a victim of the moon god .. and who were responsible for raising the pig are foreigners who work in Egypt and they were not loved by the Egyptian people and deprived From entering the sacred temples, they are also mixed with Egyptian blood, and what is permitted from the Egyptian race is it not permissible for those who likened them or for slaves.

As for the Egyptian, it was impossible to touch the pig, and if this happened to any circumstance, he would have to rush to the Nile to dive into it several times with his demolition to be cleansed of impurity.

The legend says that the god "sixt", the evil god of the ancient Egyptians, denies the image of a black pig and pours the eye of his nephew, the god "Horus".

A second legend tells that Nout, the goddess of heaven, took the form of a pig and devoured her children the stars, but they were born every night from this heavenly pig.
She and her children became a common mantra among the ancient Egyptians as a symbol of maternal fertility and a symbol of renewed life.
They also believed that the pig transmitted diseases
And because of this, the Egyptians forbade eating pork because it symbolizes evil
