Back in the day, the ancient Egyptians had dreams of soaring like majestic birds, and they put their imaginations to the test with the Saqqara Glider. It's like they built a wooden wonder, a model airplane, before airplanes even existed. This glider had wings like a bird and the curiosity of an inventor – it's like a time-traveling experiment! Whether it was a prototype for future air travel or just an ancient game of aviation dreams, the Saqqara Glider is like a whisper from the past that's caught our modern imagination.
