The kingdom which all will go to will be a sort of refugee holding camp for the want of a better description. There you will be taught the gospel. When the time for the resurrection comes each will be sent to that place which they have earned for themselves while in mortality.

When was the old kingdom ancient Egypt?

Most ancient history historians believe that the old Egyptian kingdom began approximately in 2700 BC BCE. It was during this time that the pharaohs established their right to reign based on their gods and their immortality by erecting tombs filled with items they would need in the afterlife. By 2050 BC, the old kingdom gave way to the so-called middle kingdom.


How did coffins of the old kingdom differ?

Coffins from Egypt's Old Kingdom (c. 2686–2181 BCE) were typically made of wood and often designed in a rectangular shape, reflecting the belief in the afterlife. They were adorned with intricate carvings and paintings that depicted scenes of daily life, along with spells and inscriptions intended to aid the deceased in their journey to the afterlife. Unlike later periods, where coffins became more elaborate and featured anthropoid shapes, Old Kingdom coffins primarily aimed for practicality and spiritual protection rather than elaborate design.


How many pyramids you see in the old kingdom?

In the Old Kingdom of ancient Egypt, there are approximately 80 known pyramids. The most famous among them are the three pyramids at Giza, built for Pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. These structures primarily served as tombs for the pharaohs and reflected the society's beliefs in the afterlife and the divine status of their rulers. The Old Kingdom lasted from around 2686 to 2181 BCE, marking a peak in pyramid construction.


What was mummification and why did the Egyptians carry it out?

Mummification was the process of preserving the "Khet" (physical body) for the afterlife. It consisted of removing vairous internal organs and then dehydrating while embalming the body, before wrapping it in linen and placing it in the burial tomb. During Old Kingdom Egypt, afterlife was a royal privilege only, in the New Kingdom Egypt the afterlife to those who could afford it. The preperations for mummification were designed to guarantee a resting place for their spirit for all time and a place for their mortuary cult to be maintained by the relatives they left behind.
