:cool:Two thousand five hundred years ago,Cambyses 11 of Persia commanded an army of a thousand men into Egypt. They never arrived at their destination. There was no clue as to their fate until 1977,when Egyptian archaeologists digging in the Western Desert near Mount About Ballaasa began uncovering thousands of bones,weapons and Persian amphorae. The archaeologists beleive that the army on its way to the Amon temple at Siwa oasis when they were engulfed by a huge sandstorm.
