1.  I have heard several times that Africanized bees were imported
to the USA in the 1930's, and used for breeding stock.  I am looking
for more info to find if there is any truth to this.....

2.  One often hears of still useable honey found in the pyramids or
the tombs of the pharoahs.  Are there any creditable original
references for this?  I note Dadant's "Hive and the Honeybee"
repeats this, but gives no reference.
