The Egyptians thought the heart was the centre of intelligence and emotion.
hope i helped you!! :P
The Ancient Egyptians used pyramids to help them prepare for the afterlife.
canopic jars were used to hold the guts of mummies such as stomach, liver but not the heart. The Egyptians believed that the heart had to be weighed before entering the afterlife.
The egyptians thought the heart was used for thinking and was the most important organ in the body. It was the only organ which was not removed from mummies. They did not know what the brain was for. They thought it was useless, so it was taken away from mummies. They thought that only the heart was necesary for the afterlife.
They used a book called the Book of the Dead which gave them instructions of what to do to get to the afterlife.
Heaven
Book of the Dead
Afterlife
be used by the pharaoh in the afterlife!
The Egyptians used pyramids to bury the Pharaohs body and to keep the treasure for afterlife safe from tomb robbers.
They used to keep the heart so they can go on words to the after life and the woman used to do what ever they want
So they can live in the after life. they didn't believe the brain was used for thinking, instead people in ancient Egypt thought that the heart was used for thinking...that way they could still be able to do things in the after life.
because they wanted to keep the essential importance in the body for when they get to the afterlife
