Hmm... I've got a strange and bizarre mind. I know what you're saying, doesn't everyone on the internet? I can say this, I'm not for everyone. It was once said that I've got a razor wit, a dark sarcasm and one hell of a twisted sense of humor. I like horror, I am a folklorist and I smoke.

Model of a granary with scribes keeping accounts

Egypt, from the Tomb of Meketre, Thebes, ca. 1981–1975 B.C. (Middle Kingdom, Dynasty 12)

The interior is divided into two main sections: the granary proper, where grain was stored, and an accounting area. Keeping track of grain supplies was crucial in an agricultural society, and it is noteworthy that the six men carrying sacks of grain here are outnumbered by nine men taking care of measuring and accounting.  Of the four scribes two are using papyrus scrolls, two write on wooden writing boards.
