We have learned about mummification, which is how the Egyptians got the bodies ready for burial. We learned about the pyramids which were built to be tombs for the royalty when they die. We also learned about hieroglyphics which is how the Egyptians used to write, it was mostly symbols or pictures.

I have learned that Egyptians make mummies. A mummy is someone who died and they take their body and wrap it up and put it in a tomb. Egyptians believe gods. They built pyramids for the tombs.

I learned that they make you a mummy. Also they take your brain out with a little hook. Last they put a helmet and other items so in the afterlife they use it.

So far I have learned a lot about Egypt. I learned that King Tut's real name is Tutankhamun. I also learned about mummification. I learned that a pyramid can be at least 500 ft. tall! The substance that they use to wrap a mummy is called linen. The Roseta stone helped people understand hieroglyphics. The sphinx is a lion with the head of a human. I also learned that ancient Egyptians were very, very, smart.

One thing I have learned is that when people died in Egypt they had their organs taken out and their brains broken and pulled out with a hook through their nose.I also learned that King Tut died at a young age and people wonder what killed him.Scientist think he died from malaria.MALARIA:It is a dasise from mosquitos.Another thing I have learned is that people found toys,head rests and more on King Tut's tomb.They put them their because they wanted him to look the same in the after life.The after life was just a type of heaven and they had gave him things for there

Egyptians believe in Gods.Ra was the god of the sun. He was the most important God.He had a human body, a falcon head,crowned with a sun disc encircled by the sacred cobra. Ra sailed across the heavens on a boat called Barque of Millions of Years. At night people thought he died but he went to the underworld. Anubis was the God of mummification. Geb was the God of Earth. Horus was the God of the sky. Hather was the goddess of love and joy. Heket was the goddess of childbirth. Tefnut the goddess of rain. Sekmet the the goddess of war and battle. Sobek the god of the Nile and swift action. Amun the king of he gods.

I learned that the mummy could only have its heart. They used a tiny hook to pull out the brain. I learned that there are 3 pyramids that were made for the pharos. King tut didn't have a pyramid. I also learned that the Egyptians believed in gods. Ra was the sun god.
