A team of archaeologists in Egypt opens a 3,000-year-old sarcophagus, and inside, they find… Marge Simpson? Well, not quite—but the resemblance is uncanny.

A painting on the coffin’s lid shows a woman with a towering blue hairdo, yellowish skin, and even a green dress. Sound familiar? Social media thinks so. Dubbed “Ancient Marge,” the figure has sparked memes and laughter worldwide, but her story is far from a joke.

Her name is Tadi Ist, the daughter of a high priest during Egypt’s New Kingdom Period. This isn’t just a quirky coincidence—it’s a rare glimpse into ancient Egyptian art and rituals. Surrounding Tadi Ist’s portrait are depictions of her across the 12 hours of the day, a stunning representation of time and the afterlife.

But let’s admit it: the crossover between The Simpsons and Egyptian history is weirdly perfect. Ancient art meets modern pop culture—and now you can’t unsee it.

History just got a lot more fun, didn’t it?
