A death mask is a mask that gives the dead a face in the after life.
In the 1800's it was common to make a plaster mask of a person that had just died. One of the more famous is the Lincoln Death Mask, which was used to create duplicates that were sold.
The Death Mask is used by the Egyptian Pharoahs when they died, this was so that they could have welth in the afterlife.
The death mask really is magnificent even to someone with no knowledge of the finer points of Egyptian antiquities. Made of solid gold and inlaid with semi-precious stones, it weighs 11 kilograms.
At the top you can see representations of a vulture and a cobra. You'll often see the latter referred to as a "uraeus", which is the Latinised form of the Greek word for "cobra"!
A death mask was a mask that covered a dead body and the Egyptians believed that this was what the dead body would look like in his/her afterlife!
