Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Who was Amon Ra? Amon Ra, also known as Amun-Ra, was one of the most significant deities in ancient Egyptian mythology. He was a combination of two gods, Amun and Ra. Amun started as a local god of Thebes, while Ra was the sun god. When Thebes became a powerful city, Amun merged with Ra, creating Amon Ra, the king of gods. He represented the sun, creation, and life itself. Temples dedicated to him, like the Karnak Temple, were grand and majestic. Pharaohs often claimed to be his descendants, linking their rule to divine authority. Amon Ra's influence extended beyond Egypt, impacting cultures and religions across the ancient world.

It’s a bone-chilling discovery.

Archeologists at Pompeii have recovered well-preserved skeletal remains of a man and woman who died clutching treasures of the time. 

The woman was found on a bed surrounded by gold, silver and bronze coins, along with jewelry that included pearl and gold earrings, and the man was not far from her.



Archeological Park Director Gabriel Zuchtriegel called the recent finding in the ancient city lost to a volcanic eruption in Mount Vesivius’s Region IX — where several rare treasures were recently found — “invaluable.”
