3,200 years old cheese was found in the tomb of ancient Egypt
News24xx.com - Cheese turned out to have been consumed by humans since thousands of years ago. Researchers found the evidence in a tomb in Egypt. The story of cheese is written in the book 'The Oxford Companion to Cheese'. Now there is new news that the oldest cheese in the Egyptian tomb has been discovered. Foods made from milk have been around for thousands of years.
Reporting from Dailymail, on August 15th 2018, the oldest cheese that was 3,200 years old has been found in Egyptian tombs. The condition of the cheese is very surprising, because it is filled with harmful bacteria. The cheese was found buried in the same place as the resting place of Pthames, Mayor of the Capital of Ancient Egypt.
As is known the tomb of Ptahmes was only rediscovered in 2010 after previously being lost under the desert. In his findings, there was a jar containing compacted whitish mass, and a canvas cloth used to cover the tube and protect its contents.
The researcher then dissolves the sample, then purifies the protein content and analyzes it by liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. With this technique, the detected peptide is known that the cheese was made from a mixture of cow's milk, sheep's milk and goat's milk.
According to the research characteristics on canvas fabric is more suitable for solid paint than liquid. Therefore it was concluded that the cheese found was solid cheese.
The bacteria found in the cheese are Brucella Melitensis. Brucella is very dangerous, because it is potentially deadly. These bacteria can spread from animals to humans, usually from consumption of non-heated milk products.
