Mon Oct 23, 2006 PARIS - Around a dozen Japanese tourists a year need psychological treatment after visiting Paris as the reality of unfriendly locals and scruffy streets clashes with their expectations, a newspaper reported on Sunday.
"A third of patients get better immediately, a third suffer relapses and the rest have psychoses," Yousef Mahmoudia, a psychologist at the Hotel-Dieu hospital, next to Notre Dame cathedral, told the newspaper Journal du Dimanche. Already this year, Japan's embassy in Paris has had to repatriate at least four visitors -- including two women who believed their hotel room was being bugged and there was a plot against them. Previous cases include a man convinced he was the French "Sun King", Louis XIV, and a woman who believed she was being attacked with microwaves, the paper cited Japanese embassy official Yoshikatsu Aoyagi as saying. |

CBC News Archaeologists south of Cairo have discovered three ancient tombs, including one with an inscription warning that snakes and crocodiles will eat anyone who enters.
The curse didn't stop thieves from digging at the site in the famous Saqqara pyramid complex about two months ago. Their arrest led experts to the 4,200-year-old burial site, according to Zahi Hawass, chief of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities. The tombs were built for three dentists who worked for kings and other members of the nobility in the Fifth Dynasty, he said. |
