After thousands of years it was discovered that the statues of cats that were in the tombs of the pharaohs carry within them real dead cats have appeared by X-ray 
The Pharaohs used to sanctify cats so much that when they die, they were embalming them like humans.
the really strange thing was that anyone who kills a cat even if it happened by mistake there were executing him.
that’s why we find a lot of cats in their culture.

The Pharaohs were sanctifying cats so much because one of their Gods the goddess of warfare (Bastet) is a God with a woman body and a cat head.
During the Battle of Pelusium (525 BC), Persians used cats as shields in the battle, Pharaohs couldn’t fight well because they were afraid of killing the cats that were holy for them, in that way Persians could defeat Pharaohs easily and could kill 50,000 of them.
