And the more I looked into it, the more I realized, how polarizing that area of research is. Because the big mystery here is that the ancient Egyptian lotus flower does not exist anymore.

They used them so much and they were so popular that they went completely extinct. Now we have modern... We have modern lotus flowers. The Maya had a blue lotus flower. Now, there's a difference between the blue water lily and the lotus flower. The water lily is a lily, the lotus flower is a lotus flower, and they're completely different, but they look so similar.

But the lotus flower does not exist anymore in Egypt. You also have them in India and you have them maybe in Japan and then in Mexico and in Egypt. Those are the places on the world that they're grown. But the species are all slightly different. The Egyptian lotus flower was its own unique thing that doesn't exist anymore.

We have evidence of them though, organic evidence, because they will be essentially mummified and stored in a tomb and And then you can go find like the crusted up petals of a lotus flower. And then they go and then, you know, they put them they put them in like the little glass display and they're kept in laboratories where they can be examined.

And the last time I know that one was examined is maybe in the 90s. And they they compared it to the modern day lotus flower. I don't know where this modern day lotus flower came from, either in the Americas or India. but there was like a 15% difference in the DNA of the flowers.
