Ancient Egypt

Tutankhaum was a good ruler because he reintroduced the Gods.

Obviously, modern-day Egyptians are Muslims, which is a monotheistic religion similar to Christianity which teaches that the righteous will go to Paradise after death and find eternal bliss. But regarding the Ancient Egyptians, it was a bit more complicated. They believed that the afterlife was a place called 'The Land of Two Fields', and that the god Osiris determined a person's eligibility to enter this Paradise. In order to gain entry to the afterlife you had to have done your best to be good in this world and to have not committed serious sin- the amount of good or bad you had done was measured in how light or heavy your heart was. After death, your heart was weighed by the goddess Maat- if it was too heavy, then you didn't go on to the afterlife and were stuck forever in the limbo of death. But if it was light enough, you were entitled to enter the boat that carried you across the River Styx to Paradise, which was piloted by the ferryman Charon. Also, in order to enter the afterlife you had to have your body preserved and embalmed, and to have your name written down somewhere. The Belief was that the soul consisted of two parts, the Ba and the Ka- every morning, your Ba flew off to keep watch over your surviving family, whilst your Ka went to enjoy the afterlife. Both parts returned to your body at night to sleep until the following morning. If something happened to your mortal remains, or your name was not recorded somewhere, then the Ba and the Ka would get lost on their way home and never again be able to return to Paradise, nor to watch over your family.

Although most Egyptians maintained a diet of beer and bread, many other items were fed to Egyptians. Also there was a lot of wine, beer, and bread making going on in Egypt. Fishing was also one of many things done to provide food. Lastly, eating traditions played a large role in ancient Egyptian lifestyle.

How would you feel if you ate bread and beer almost every meal and every day? This was one of Egypt's most common food combinations. Most of these items were made at home. Wine was also very popular in ancient Egypt. Oftentimes people ate salads much like us today. They put items like lettuce, cucumbers, scallions, peas, beans, and lentils in their salad. They also added many different spices to their salad. They used almond and sesame oil in a lot of their cooking. They also ate these items a lot to. People also ate a lot of dairy products like yogurt, cheese, and milk. These were the basic diets in ancient Egypt.

Fishing was done for a variety of reasons. It was done a lot because it was one of the gifts from the Nile. Fishing provided many families with a living. Some fish ate by Egyptians were carp, mullet, and perch. In fact a single mullet was worth an entire jar of beer. Wealthy families fished for sport. Much like our anglers today, noble men amused themselves using a rod and line. This was very different from the regular nets used by fishers that did it for a living. Poorer families were often the ones to eat fish. So people often fished for many reasons.

Farming was a very large industry in ancient Egypt. The most important crops were wheat and barley. These were the items used in making the basic Egyptian diet: bread and beer. Also important crops were papyrus for writing sheets and flax for linen. Beans, lentils, and many vegetables were also grown in Egypt. The richer you were the more of a variety of food you had to choose from. Farmers often sold their crops to government run stores in cities like Memphis. So that is a little taste of farming in ancient Egypt.

Many Egyptians ate meat. Wealthy Egyptians were also able to afford meats like lamb, venison, goat, beef, pork, duck, geese, quail and even pigeons. Butchering animals was an important process. To butcher an animal you would first tie its legs together. Then pull it to the side and kill it. So that is the meats of Egypt.

Making beer, wine, and bread were important processes. To make bread you would grind wheat up with a stone. Then add water to make dough. When you had shaped it into loaf form you would bake it. When it was only half finished you would crumple some of it into a jar with water. After sealing the jar you would have to wait for it to ferment, or for it to have a chemical change into alcohol. Once this was done you'd drink it as beer. Lastly wine was made by filling a container or crate with grapes. Then you'd step in them to make a juice. Then this would ferment and become wine. So that is how to make beer, bread, and wine.

Lastly I will inform you of some eating traditions of ancient Egypt. Wealthy Egyptians would have servants serve courses one by one. Egyptians ate with their fingers. They would rinse them between courses in bowls with water in them. Egyptians sat on low chairs or mats. They also ate on low tables. In conclusion Egyptians had many diverse eating traditions.

So in conclusion most Egyptians maintained a diet of beer and bread, but still many other items were fed to Egyptians. There was a lot of wine, beer, and bread making going on in Egypt.

Fishing was also one of many things done to provide food. Lastly Eating traditions played a large role in ancient Egyptian lifestyle.

In the process of making a mummy, stones were thrown at the person who made the first cut on the body. When the body arrived one of the assistants made a cut on the left side of the abdomen so that the internal organs could be removed. It was thought to be bad to "hurt" a body like this, so the other assistants would throw stones at the one who made the cut. This was not supposed to hurt him, it was just part of the ceremony.

All of Egypt's pyramids are sited on the west bank of the Nile and most are grouped together in a number of pyramid fields.

The German Egyptologist Karl Richard Lepsius (1810-84) produced the first modern list of pyramids in 1842. He identified 67. A great many more have since been discovered, in November 2008 118 pyramids had been identified. The location of Pyramid 29 for example, the so-called "Headless Pyramid", was lost for a second time when the structure was buried by desert sands subsequent to Lepsius' survey. It was only rediscovered again during an archaeological dig conducted in 2008.

Many pyramids are in a poor state of preservation or buried by desert sands. If visible at all they may appear as little more than mounds of rubble. As archaeological techniques improve Egyptologists are continuing to identify and study previously unknown pyramid structures.

The most recent pyramid to be discovered is that of Queen Sesheshet, mother of 6th Dynasty Pharaoh Teti, located at Saqqara. The discovery was announced by the Egyptian Council of Antiquities, on 11 November 2008.

I visited many wonderful pyramids during my college research time through the help of a well- known travel agency known as Ask Aladdin. They help me a lot.
