Cristiano Ronaldo vs. the First Mummy

Ronaldo earns $136 million a year / about 11 million a month.

5,500 years ago: (3600 to 3500 BC): Uruk period in Sumer. First evidence of mummification in Egypt.

If the first Mummy had been earning $32,000/month since his/her mummification – without spending a penny – he/she would have to live 4250 years to earn Ronaldo’s annual income.

“There is no document of civilisation which is not at the same time a document of barbarism.” —Walter Benjamin
